Pablo Sarabia has returned to Wolves training this week, after missing the defeat to Newcastle United with an injury.
The Spaniard was a surprise absentee against the Magpies in Sunday.
But Julen Lopetegui confirmed just before the game that he had a little problem in the days leading up to the game.
Sarabia, it turns out, had been nursing a heel problem.
But it looks as though the 30-year-old will be available for this weekend’s clash with Leeds United. And that is a big boost for Wolves.
The club released some training pictures yesterday, and Sarabia can be seen amongst his teammates as normal. He appears in a few shots.
Sarabia proved to be a miss against Newcastle.
While he has not yet hit his stride, he has definitely shown himself to be a creative player that makes things happen.
He got his first goal in the 1-1 draw with Fulham. And Wolves officials are hoping he can build on that.

This is good to see, and something Lopetegui will have been relieved about.
The manager has take quite a liking to Sarabia since he signed from Paris Saint-Germain in January.
After coming off the bench against Manchester City in January, Sarabia started every Premier League game up until Sunday’s with Newcastle.
The manager did talk up his impact on the dressing room recently. He called him a ‘very good character’ and ‘very competitive’.
