Wolverhampton Wanderers have announced that German coach Patrick Weiser has joined the club to assist manager Stale Solbakken.
The Championship outfit are believed to have been in talks with the 40-year-old over the last few weeks regarding a move from Cologne to Molineux.
"After assessing various candidates Stale and the club have decided that Patrick is the best man to fill the coaching vacancy and we are delighted to welcome him to Molineux," said Wolves chief executive Jez Moxey.
"He will bring in further fresh ideas and expertise to our backroom staff and aim to help the players build on an encouraging start to the season."
Weiser, who worked alongside Solbakken last season, takes the place of dismissed coach Terry Connor.
