Wolves boss Nuno pleased with Jonny rehab efforts

Wolves boss Nuno has revealed Jonny Otto is working hard to return from knee surgery.

The 26-year-old Spaniard had a successful operation on his right knee in mid August after injuring his anterior cruciate ligament against Olympiacos in the Europa League.

Asked if Otto is on schedule, Nuno said: “Yes, he's doing OK. He works a lot.

“He works more than anybody else. He works morning, afternoon and night. He's always working, and he's doing well."

On whether he is close to doing any ball work, Nuno said it is still a gradual process, adding: “No, not yet.

"It's the gym and his shadow is the physio. It's 24 hours with the physio.

“Things take time and we cannot afford any kind of mistakes in recovery with a player like Jonny."
