Aston Villa have confirmed Tyrone Mings has completed his permanent move from Bournemouth.
The deal is worth an initial £20m, which could rise to £25m according to Sky sources, and sees Mings become Villa's sixth signing of the summer after impressing while on loan at the club during the second half of last season.
The 26-year-old played a key role in Villa's promotion to the Premier League via the Sky Bet Championship play-offs, making 18 appearances.
"We're really pleased to have Tyrone back at Aston Villa," said manager Dean Smith.
"I think everybody could see the connection that he made with the club as a whole and it is excellent news that we can continue the relationship in the Premier League.
"He will be an integral part of the squad for the new season and I look forward to working with him and helping to further develop his game."
Mings will join the rest of the squad on the pre-season tour to the USA.
