Football's suspension has left Wolverhampton Wanderers with a clean bill of health.

Prior to the lockdown, which was enforced in the UK almost three months ago, Wolves were struggling with a few niggles and knocks.

Key defender Jonny Castro Otto missed four fixtures against Espanyol, Tottenham, Brighton and Olympiakos due to a foot injury sustained in the 3-0 victory over Norwich City.

Jonny was believed to be closing in on a comeback before the break and he returned to Compton Park fully fit four weeks ago. The Spain international has been able to take a full part in Nuno Espirito Santo's training sessions and is set to see out the season at left wing-back.

Morgan Gibbs-White was having trouble with his ankle but like Jonny he's been able to take a full part in training ahead of the restart.

Star attacker Adama Traore has endured problems with his shoulder and has dislocated it on numerous occasions this season. The break has also been beneficial to Traore and allowed him to focus on strengthening a weak point which had been targeted by defenders in recent matches.

Traore has been able to take part in training over the past four weeks and looks set to hit the ground running when Wolves return.

The squad are poised to face Nottingham Forest in a friendly next week before the real action gets underway against West Ham on June 20.

Away from the first team, Meritan Shabani is making steady progress from his knee injury. The German youngster ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament on his debut in September but recently stepped up his recovery with running work.

Here's the current suspension situation ahead of Wolves' return to Premier League action.

Willy Boly and Romain Saiss have already served league bans so far this term, while Raul Jimenez missed the 4-0 Europa League win over Besiktas due to suspension.
