Atletico Madrid have completed the signing of full-back Jonny Castro on a six-year deal, before sending the defender on a season-long loan to Wolves, as the Midlands side look to build their squad ahead of the coming Premier League season. 

The 24-year-old signed for last season's La Liga runners up on Wednesday, and has been instantly loaned to the Premier League new boys in a bid to get him consistent first-team football while Filipe Luis, Juanfran and World Cup finalists Lucas Hernandez and Sime Vrsaljko hold down the full-back slots in the Spanish capital.
