Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo is unsure how seriously Ruben Neves was injured during Saturday's impressive 3-1 victory at Everton.

The 21-year-old Portugal international had to be substituted in the opening minutes of the second half at Goodison Park.

Nuno said: "He had to go off. He was in pain and was not able to continue, so let's assess him now. It was a kick."

Wolves' triumph at Everton was their third top-flight win in a row and they can now turn their attention towards Tuesday's FA Cup fourth-round replay against League One side Shrewsbury Town.

Nuno said of his side's impressive progress this season: "It's the same people, the same players, trying to always find solutions and improve, and grow in our game.

"The team that played at Everton, 70 per cent of them were with us in the Championship and we don't forget where we came from.

"If you have the desire and the hunger, you are always able to fight. If not, you wish and expect things. We go by work."

Wolves are seventh in the Premier League table and 14/1 to clinch a top-six spot this term. They are 11/2 to beat Shrewsbury 3-0 in the FA Cup at Molinuex on Tuesday and 10/1 to win the competition outright this season.
