Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Ivan Cavaleiro made his first start of the season last night.
Nuno has told Wolverhampton Wanderers’ official website that Ivan Cavaleiro is getting better.
Cavaleiro has missed the whole of the campaign so far with a back injury, but he made his comeback display last night.
Wolves took on Leicester City in the Carabao Cup, and Cavaleiro was selected to start.
The wide-man made a limited impact on the contest, with both sides drawing 0-0.
But Cavaleiro almost got an hour’s worth of football under his belt, and Nuno was happy to see the attacker get a run out.
He said: “Cav was injured but we managed to take him out of pain and now he’s getting better. Of course, we needed to manage the time he had on the pitch, but I’m pleased because he’s another option.
“The options are good, and the most important thing is the way the boys work for their chance. They work on a daily basis and when the chance comes good answers must be given and today they gave a good answer tonight.”
Cavaleiro’s return to Wolves strengthens their attacking options even further.
He could work well in tandem with Adama Traore off the bench, as the pair both posses brilliant pace.
Wolves are next in action at the weekend, when they take on Southampton.
