Wolves manager Lage: Raul still adjusting to headgear

Wolves manager Bruno Lage says Raul Jimenez is still adjusting his new protective headgear.

The Mexico international has had to wear protection since suffering a fractured skull in November 2020.

Jimenez sported smaller headgear in the loss to Burnley last weekend, and Lage says he is still getting comfortable.

"Every time the science is improving and he has to adapt," Lage said, via the Express & Star.

"The other one (headband) is lighter and better for him.

"What we want is to put everyone fit and ready to score goals, so the club is doing everything in their hands to help everybody to be better every day."

Asked if Jimenez feels more comfortable with his new headgear, Lage added: "I think so, yes."
