Wolves boss Gary O'Neil says Pedro Neto is nearing a playing return.

However, he admits the clash with Fulham will be too soon for the winger.

Pedro won't make Monday," said O'Neil.

"He's got a little bit more work to do. Pedro will stay with the physios and fitness staff for a bit longer. There's no exact time frame, but Monday he won't be available. Hopefully it's weeks. It's hard because there'll be tests done, he goes for other check-ups and scans and you're sort of guided by them, how quickly he's healing, but he's healing very well.

He's probably ahead of where they would have wanted him to be at this point. We're pleased with the progress he's made, but with the nature of the injury, we need to make sure everything's ticked off properly before he's back with the group."
