Wolves boss Bruno Lage says he won't rush back Pedro Neto.

Neto is working his way back from knee surgery.

Lage said, “He's working well, but he needs time. I talk with him and he wants to come as soon as possible, but at this moment it's not a question.

“He needs to understand his body, understand what happened with him and he needs to go step by step, so when he's ready to come back, he's 100 per cent to help us.

“Of course [it can be lonely], so it's important to receive him, he comes in, he gives us energy and all the players, the way I saw them talk with him, it was very good because the players are the guys who know their colleagues best.

“They know he's an important guy, they know he can help us, so they are here and waiting for him and give him what he needs to recovery well."
