Trio return for Wolves' derby date

Wolves were today handed a triple fitness boost for Sunday's Midlands derby against Leicester – opening up a dilemma at right-back.

Boss Stale Solbakken expects to have Kevin Foley, Razak Boukari and Bjorn Sigurdarson fit for the lunchtime televised visit of the Foxes.

Foley hasn't kicked a ball this season because of a knee injury, while new signings Boukari (hamstring) and Sigurdarson (back) were minor casualties who missed the 3-1 defeat at Cardiff before the international break.

Solbakken said: "Foley's 100 per cent. He came through the practice game and he can start fighting for his place.

"Sigurdarson is back in business, Razak completed half of yesterday's training session at 100 per cent.

"He feels a bit insecure about it, but it's going in the right direction. I think he'll be OK for Sunday."

Ronald Zubar endured an uncomfortable afternoon at Cardiff, and Solbakken hinted he will rotate his right-backs with Wolves approaching a glut of fixtures.
