MK Dons have confirmed that they have agreed terms with Wolves to sign defender Ethan Ebanks-Landell on a season-long loan deal.

The League One side announced on their official Twitter account and official website on Friday morning that the 24-year-old joined up with the club at their training camp in Hungary to secure his temporary transfer from Molineux.

Ebanks-Landell is a product of the Black Country club’s impressive academy set-up, and was a key part in the Sheffield United first-team last season during a successful loan spell which saw him earn his second League One winners medal.

He made 34 appearances across all competitions for the Blades in the 2016/17 season, scoring an impressive five goals despite playing in a defensive position.

The English centre-back, who can also play at right-back, is clearly not seen in the first-team plans by Nuno Espirito Santo at Molineux despite making 50 appearances for the club since breaking through their academy.

It’s been a very busy summer for Wolves so far, with Ruben Neves’ surprise move from Porto becoming a Championship record deal after a £15.8million fee was agreed.

The Wanderers have also secured the services of Roderick Miranda, Barry Douglas, Ryan Bennett, John Ruddy, Phil Ofosu-Ayeh and Willy Boly as their huge squad overhaul continues to gain pace with Ebanks-Landell’s departure.
