The winger – who can also play as a full-back – spent the latter half of last season on loan at the Den, playing 16 times in the Championship for the South London club.

Marshall only arrived at Molineux from Blackburn Rovers in January 2017 and managed 25 appearances for the West Midlands clubs during that time.
