Karl was delighted to join his home town club during the week that led to the start of the 2006/07 campaign.
The midfielder was out of contract at Stoke City but, as he was under 24, a compensation figure was agreed with Wolves paying the Potteries team £100,000 plus extras depending on appearances.
After signing the three-year deal, Karl made his full debut at Plymouth on the opening day of the season. He started with Stoke as a trainee in 1999 and, apart from a five month loan to Cheltenham Town in 2004, he remained with the north Staffordshire club until his switch to Wolves.
Karl was appointed team captain in December, 2006, until Jody Craddock recovered from injury.
Playing at both right-back and in the centre of midfield, his influential first season came to a dramatic end when Karl suffered a potential life-threatening injury in the game against Luton. Karl bruised his spleen and was forced to sit out the remainder of the 2006/07 campaign.
He made 42 appearances in the 2007/08 season but also suffered from an injury, the 3-2 win at Charlton in March in which he struck a dramatic last-gasp winner proving his last appearance until the final day of the season.
Karl once again took on the captaincy at the start of the 2008/09 season after injury to Jody, and was an integral part of the team which made an impressive start to the season.
Thanks to his success, Karl signed a new contract in October, 2007, keeping him at Molineux until 2011.
