The French centre-half has been out for seven weeks with a hamstring strain.

But after two weeks in training, the 26-year-old could be available for tomorrow’s visit of Preston North End. If not, he’s likely to feature in Tuesday’s Carabao Cup clash at Manchester City.

The Preston game is set to be watched by a crowd of at least 27,000 as fans continue to get on board the Nunolution at Molineux.

Last Saturday’s derby win over Villa saw the biggest attendance for a Wolves home game since 1981, with 30,239 in attendance.

As of yesterday, Preston had sold 1,600 of a 2,500 allocation in the Steve Bull lower.

Demand for home tickets has meant the Stan Cullis stand quadrant has been opened to sales.

Wolves are offering a 40 per cent discount for students aged 17 to 24 in the Steve Bull stand.
