Steven Mouyokolo’s debut for Wolves
Friday 30th July 2010, 10:00AM BST.
Steven Mouyokolo will finally make his debut for Wolves as two of the club’s three World Cup stars return to action at Cheltenham.
Centre-back Mouyokolo has fully recovered from the twisted ankle that kept him out of three weeks’ training and cost him a big chunk of pre-season.
The £2.5million signing from Hull is included in another mix-and-match side that travels to Gloucestershire tonight, including first-choice keeper Marcus Hahnemann, fresh from the USA’s exploits in South Africa, and Serbia international Nenad Milijas.
Also included in the trip to Whaddon Road are Matt Hill, Geoffrey Mujangi Bia, Sam Vokes and Andy Keogh. Academy second year scholar Brian McGroary is the only unfamiliar name in a squad otherwise made up of homegrown youngsters.
But it’s the inclusion of Mouyokolo which will be the big talking point among fans.
And the 23-year-old defender wants to repay the faith shown in him by boss Mick McCarthy.
“I’m delighted to be here and that Mick McCarthy believes in me,” he said.
“The most important thing for me now is to have a good rest of the pre-season to make sure I’m ready for the first game.
“I want to get to know the other players on the pitch.”
