Wolves have signed Andreas Weimann on loan from Midlands rivals Derby County until the end of the season.
The 25-year-old has struggled to establish himself in Steve McClaren's first team this season, making a solitary Championship start and 10 further substitute appearances.
The Austria international forward has not scored a single goal in all competitions this season - so he will now join up with his former boss at Villa Paul Lambert, who is currently manager at Molineux.
Weimann joined Derby from Aston Villa in a £2.5m deal in 2015 and scored four goals in 33 appearances for the Rams last season.
He came up through the youth ranks at Villa Park and spent time on loan at Watford before establishing himself in Villa's first-team in 2012 under Alex McLeish.
Weimann scored 12 goals in 38 Premier League appearances in 2012-13 under Lambert.
