Millwall have signed midfielder George Saville from Wolves for an undisclosed fee.

The 24-year-old has put pen to paper on a three-year contract and becomes the second player on Monday to make the permanent move from Molineux to The Den, following in the footsteps of winger Jed Wallace.

Like Wallace, Saville has had two loan spells with Millwall. He made 18 appearances in 2013 before returning in October 2015.

Lions boss Neil Harris told the club’s official website: “I’m really pleased. George is well known to us as he has been here as a player before. He had a really successful loan with us and we’ve monitored him ever since.

“We like to bring in players that know us and that we know and as soon as we knew of George’s availability, it was a no-brainer.

“He’s another player of a good age with really good potential. He played almost 30 games in the Championship last season, too, so he has experience.”
