Wolves boss Nuno delighted with early season form of Rui Patricio

Wolves boss Nuno is delighted with the early season form of Rui Patricio.

The Portugal goalkeeper arrived in August from Sporting CP.

The goalkeeper has been at the centre of a transfer wrangle since he walked out of Sporting, along with eight other players, in the summer following disruption at the club - which included a training ground attack on the squad by masked intruders.

Nuno said: "He's a very mature player, a lot of experience and besides that, he's a man, he knows how to handle things.

"He can separate things and you must separate things - when you train, when you compete and all the matters which surround you, you have to go away from that and I think he can do it.

"He's doing his job, he's a goalkeeper and must prevent balls to go inside of the goal. He's doing a job and doing it well.

"As a club Wolves have excellent behaviour in this situation. Anything else will be said by the club."
