Jose Sa is welcoming the goalkeeper competition at Wolves.

The Portuguese shot-stopper is being challenged for the number one spot by new signing Matija Sarkic.

"I like the competition. Everybody likes competition and we have good goalkeepers," Sa said.

"To lose John Ruddy was hard for us because he's a good guy and a good team-mate. He helped us a lot and help me a lot to work and pushed me. Of course I was sad when I heard the news, but this is football and it can happen.

"It's very good (working with Sarkic). He's a young guy who works very well.

"He helps me, I help him. That's what we think about it."
