Wolves’ technical director Scott Sellars told the club’s official website: "We’ve looked at Nathan for a while and admired him, so we’re delighted to bring him to the football club.
"He’s a very talented young man – he’s only 21, has played international football and had a good season last year with Burnley.
"We think we’ve signed a player with a lot of potential, as well as being a very good footballer now.
"We’re getting someone who is physically very good, very tall, very athletic, and is very comfortable on the ball.
"The feedback on his personality is about his leadership qualities, he’s a good character, so he ticks all the boxes."
Collins joined Burnley last summer and made 22 appearances for the club, as they unfortunately fell to England's second tier.
Despite their fall from grace, the Leixlip man delivered impressive performances and capped a fine individual year with a memorable goal for his country.
