Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo does not want to compare Eric Vardanyan to Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

The Armenian is a star for FC Pyunik, who Wolves battled in the Europa League second qualifying round.

Wolves took the game by the scruff of the neck and won 4-0 at home, securing their spot in the third round.

Vardanyan impressed and drew comparisons to his more famous countryman, but Nuno wants to judge him as his own player.

Speaking to the club website after the game, Nuno said: "I know he's [Vardanyan] a good player, but I think comparing players is not good, because sometimes you lose your focus.

"Talent is good, but hard work is better."
