Wolves have signed Wigan striker Nouha Dicko for an undisclosed fee.

The French-born 21-year-old returns to Molineux following a loan spell at the end of the 2012-13 season, during which he scored once in four appearances.

Dicko failed to find the net in nine outings for the Latics, having joined from Strasbourg in August 2011.

Dicko, who has agreed a two-and-a-half-year contract, becomes the third addition to the squad at Molineux during the January transfer window.

Wingers and James Henry arrived from Derby and Millwall respectively, and head coach Kenny Jackett hopes the signing of Dicko will help his side towards automatic promotion back to the Championship.
