West Ham have announced the signing of Wolves captain Max Kilman for €47million.
The 27-year-old centre-half, who has arrived at the London Stadium on a seven-year deal, is reunited with Julen Lopetegui following the Spaniard's spell at Molineux last season.
The Hammers had a bid rejected earlier in the summer but returned with a higher offer.
Kilman told the Hammers’ official website: "It’s an amazing feeling to be a West Ham United player.
"As soon as I was aware of the interest from the club, it was an opportunity I was keen to pursue, so I couldn’t be more delighted to be here.
"I really enjoyed working with Julen during his time at Wolves – he’s a top-class coach and someone I learned a lot from, and I am confident I will continue to improve as a player under his management here.
"West Ham is a massive club and I feel this is the natural next step forward in my career."
Kilman, who underwent a successful medical on Friday, leaves Wolves just 12 months after signing a new long-term deal.
He was at Molineux for six years, making 151 appearances in all competitions, after costing Wolves €47,000 from Maidenhead.
Leicester have announced the signing of Bobby De Cordova-Reid from Fulham on a three-year deal.
The winger began his career with Bristol City and, following a loan spell, he made the permanent move to Craven Cottage in January 2020 and went on to appear 209 times for Fulham.
De Cordova-Reid has been capped 33 times for Jamaica and recently represented his country at this summer's Copa America.
Luton have made former Brentford midfielder Shandon Baptiste their first summer signing.
The 26-year-old has linked up with the Hatters, playing in the Sky Bet Championship this season after relegation from the Premier League, following his departure from Brentford.
Baptiste told Luton's official website: "I feel like Luton is the right place for me. Watching the club play last season, it was clear that something big was happening here and I want to be a part of it.
"There are good players and a good manager here so I’m hopeful that we can do big things together.
"I’ve had a lot of injuries during my career, but I feel like I’ve passed that now and hopefully I can just look forward to doing great things in the Luton shirt."
