Wolves update on injured striker Jota

Wolves forward Diogo Jota is close to returning from injury, according to head coach Nuno Espirito Santo.

He said: "Diogo made a scan yesterday. I think next week he can progress on the pitch. He can start his healing process.

"It's important for us. He's been away a long time. We didn't expect it to be so serious.

"But he's healing ok, so like I say, hopefully next week he can start on the pitch running with the team. Then it's about his progress and getting better so we can use him in competition."
