Kenny Jackett pleased with attacking talents at his disposal

Wolverhampton Wanderers boss Kenny Jackett is unconcerned by the recent loss of Nouha Dicko, due to the strength of attacking options available to him this season.

Kenny Jackett has insisted that he is happy with his current attacking options at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Wolves were hit with a big injury blow earlier this month following the news that forward Nouha Dicko is unlikely to play again this term.

Despite this, Jackett has full confidence in Cardiff City loanee Adam Le Fondre successfully stepping up to the plate alongside Benik Afobe, while also highlighting the talents of his attacking midfield options.

"We have Benik and Adam Le Fondre as two good goalscorers and we also have a number of players who can play behind a striker," he told the club's official website. "Rajiv [van La Parra] has also played up front and can bring pace to our frontline when needed.

"We have a number of players like Dave Edwards, James Henry, Jed Wallace, Nathan Byrne – all of those guys can play behind a striker as well which is an option for us if we want to do something different tactically. We do want to be as strong as possible and to have strikers on the bench is what you need.

"And while we are always looking at the loan market there is also young Bright [Enobakhare] who looked a fantastic prospect in pre-season. I wouldn't want us to bypass him for someone else who is maybe not as good. Bright is a very good player and he is itching for his chance."

Wolves find themselves occupying 15th place in the Championship table after winning two of their opening six fixtures.
