Wolves have signed Chelsea's highly-rated teenage striker, Carlton Cole, on a month's loan.
Cole, who turned 19 earlier this month, has already made four first-team appearances for the Blues so far this season despite an injury, scoring three goals in the process.
He has been tipped by chairman Ken Bates as a future England international but the club feel his best short-term interests would be served by a spell of regular first-team football in the First Division.
Wolves have been searching for a loan signing to cover for injured top scorer Nathan Blake, with a move for veteran Tottenham striker Les Ferdinand having recently been rebuffed.
However, Chelsea chief executive Trevor Birch told the club's website, www.chelseafc.com: "As everyone knows, Carlton has done excellently this season when he has been given a chance in the first team.
"But with Eidur Gudjohnsen and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink now back to full fitness and Gianfranco Zola in such good form, he was only likely to receive a limited opportunity to play in the short term.
"This loan is ideal as he will have the chance to play regularly in a good side at a good level, build his confidence further and hopefully score some goals."
Cole could make his debut for Dave Jones' men at Rotherham on Saturday with Dean Sturridge playing through the pain of niggling injuries to both knees.
