Gary O'Neil has hinted that Jonny could still have a future with Wolves, despite being exiled from the first team after swinging an elbow towards an U21 player.

The 29-year-old Spanish footballer, who joined from Atletico Madrid for £18m in 2019, has been disciplined following a training ground incident and will not return to the first-team set-up until the end of January.

However, O'Neil took the opportunity to praise the defender's contribution to the club when asked about the situation in his pre-match press conference ahead of Sunday's trip to West Ham.
