French midfielder Josuha Guilavogui says his goal is to see Wolfsburg play regular Champions League football after signing a permanent three-year deal, following two seasons on loan in the Bundesliga.

The 25-year-old joined Wolfsburg on loan from Atletico Madrid at the start of the 2014/15 season and the German club has signed a contract with the Frenchman until 2019.

"I'm happy that I will continue to play at VfL Wolfsburg and can be part of his great club. It was always my wish to stay here longer," he said.

"I want to help permanently establish VfL at the top of the Bundesliga, so that we can play regular Champions League football."

Guilavogui has played in 30 of Wolfsburg's 34 league games this season and started their 2-0 win over Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, first-leg, of the Champions League before bowing out after a 3-0 defeat in Spain.

Guilavogui has made seven appearances for France, but has not been nominated for their Euro 2016 squad.

"We are very pleased that we were able to sign Josuha permanently," said Wolfsburg's director of sport Klaus Allofs.

"He has shown in the last two years that he fits Wolfsburg both as a person and an athlete.

"For us, it was always clear that we wanted to keep him, because his development isn't over yet."

Wolfsburg finished as runners-up to Bayern Munich in the German league during Guilavogui's first season in 2014/15 and lifted the German Cup last season.

But they finished only eighth when the current campaign was completed on Saturday, outside the European places.
