Aston Villa moved quickly this month to bring in Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Kortney Hause, with Dean Smith looking for additions.
Wolverhampton Wanderers could be left regretting the decision to loan Kortney Hause to Aston Villa already.
With Willy Boly out for three matches with suspension now, Wolves look dangerously short on centre-back options.
Ryan Bennett, Conor Coady and Leander Dendoncker may be forced to start Wolves’ next match, but there is a lack of cover in defence beyond that, and Hause may have actually had a chance of featuring had he not moved to Villa.
Dean Smith’s side were quick to snap up Hause this month, as his chances at Molineux had been very limited in recent seasons.
The centre-back looked totally out of favour, and he was very rusty on debut for Villa.
Hause came off the bench in the Villans 3-0 defeat to Wigan Athletic at the weekend, when his performance was alarmingly poor.
But while Wolves may not have seen Hause as a long-term solution, he could have been useful to them now.
And Nuno may have been wishing that Wolves had held on to Hause for longer now, as he could have been a good option at this moment in time.
