Wolves today unveiled their fourth summer signing with the arrival of Stephen Hunt from Hull for £3m as they stepped up interest in a fifth new face.

The Ireland left winger has signed a three-year contract and joins £2.5m Jelle van Damme, £7m Steven Fletcher and £2.5m Steven Mouyokolo in Mick McCarthy’s reshaped squad.

And they may soon be joined by a fifth new boy after Wolves joined the bidding for powerful Nantes midfielder Guirane N’Daw.

Reports yesterday that the 26-year-old Senegal international had agreed a move to come to Wolves were dismissed as incorrect by chief executive Jez Moxey.

But N’Daw has been on Wolves’ radar for more than a year and the 6ft 3ins anchorman, who spent last season on loan at St Etienne, is expected to complete a £1.75m move imminently.

Hunt, meanwhile, was at Compton today undergoing treatment before a press conference at Molineux this afternoon as he continues his rehabilitation from a broken foot.

The former Reading wideman, 22, who was Hull’s six-goal top scorer and Player of the Year last season despite not playing after February, is not expected to be fit until after the start of the new campaign.

Meanwhile midfielder Andrew Surman is set to join Championship side Sheffield United as Wolves recouped the £1.2m they paid Southampton a year ago.

Surman made just three league starts for Wolves and nine appearances in total.
