Earning a club-record transfer to Luton Town last summer following their promotion to the top flight, 11 of Giles’ 14 appearances for the Hatters this season came in the Premier League.

The former England Under-20 international progressed through Wolves’ youth ranks, winning their 2017/18 academy player of the year, and has also had spells with Telford United and Shrewsbury Town.

Head coach Liam Rosenior said: “I’m absolutely delighted that Ryan is joining the club and that he’s decided to come here. He’s a top full-back at this level and we want to improve and develop him with us.

“He’s going to make a huge difference to our team, give us balance and a real attacking threat on the left side of the pitch.
