Wolves have completed the permanent £5million signing of midfielder Jamie O'Hara from Tottenham after he put pen to paper on a five-year deal.[LNB] O'Hara will stay at Molineux until 2016 after enjoying a successful loan spell at Molineux during the second half of last season.[LNB]The 24-year-old scored three goals in 13 games including one against Blackburn on the final day of the season which helped keep Wolves in the Premier League.[LNB]An agreement was already in place for O'Hara to make the £5million move to Wolves should the player and manager Mick McCarthy want that to happen.[LNB]O'Hara was often used effectively just behind the main striker in a 4-5-1 formation as Wolves guaranteed Premier League football for a third successive season.[LNB]McCarthy said: "Jamie made a big impact when he first came here. There was a dip in form at one juncture but he came strong again at the end."[LNB]Wolves are also interested in £3million-rated Reading defender Matt Mills and Liverpool left-back Paul Konchesky who spent the second half of last season on loan to Nottingham Forest.[LNB]McCarthy is also looking for a new keeper as back-up for Wayne Hennessey after Marcus Hahnemann was released at the end of last season.
