Wolves youngster Ben Stevenson has gone back out on loan.
Colchester United announced today they have agreed a deal to sign Wolves attacker Ben Stevenson.
Steven has signed a permanent deal and a contract until 2021, the club announced on their official website.
Stevenson signed on loan at Colchester last season and impressed, scoring twice.
He had been on loan at Spanish side FC Jumilla earlier this season.
Wolves signed Stevenson from Coventry City just one year ago, before loaning him straight out to the U’s.
The 21-year-old is a bright talent, but the pace of Wolves’ ascent to the top half of the Premier League meant there was little opportunity for him to develop.
It is still a little surprising Wolves have sold him so soon, rather than loaning him out again, but it is the right move for the player to cut the cord now and allow him to move on.
Here is a look at how Colchester fans reacted on Twitter to the deal…
