Wolves did not disclose the fee paid for the defender but British media reported the English club paid around two million euros ($2.37 million) for the 31-year-old.

Marcal's signing follows the capture of Portuguese teenager Fabio Silva from Porto on Saturday for a club record fee that was reported to be around 35 million pounds ($46.50 million).

Marcal helped Lyon reach the Champions League semi-final last season and made 26 appearances in all competitions and he is Wovles' third recruit in the off season after goalkeeper Matija Sarkic was signed from Aston Villa on a free transfer.
