Portuguese international midfielder Silas has moved to Wolverhampton Wanderers in a one million pounds deal.

Silas -- full name Jorge Manuel Rebelo Fernandes -- passed a medical on Tuesday night after Wolves had agreed a fee with Portuguese club Uniao Leiria that would involve further payments subject to appearances.

The 25-year-old is Wolves's second signing in two days following the arrival of Nigerian international defender Isaac Okoronkwo. Ukrainian defender Oleg Luzhny is also set to move to Molineux from Arsenal subject to the settlement of a work permit.
