Wolves midfielder moves to managerless Dons

Milton Keynes Dons have completed the signing of Republic of Ireland international Stephen Gleeson from Wolves. The 20-year-old midfielder spent the back end of last season on-loan at the League One outfit and has now agreed a permanent move to the managerless Dons. Gleeson joins the club for an undisclosed fee having concurred on terms for a three-year contract. "I'd planned to come back here if I got the chance and it's great that the two clubs have got the deal finalised," he told the club's official website. "Once I got here I loved the place so it was ideal for me to come back. "Obviously the chairman is looking for a new manager but the club itself has huge ambition and that's good enough for me." Dons chairman Pete Winkleman added: "It's a fantastic signing for the club - Stephen made a huge impression here last season and is just the type of young player that can take us forward."
