Nuno Espirito Santo has played down talk of Wolves qualifying for Europe as he just wants to enjoy the progress the club has made.
Wolves have enjoyed an impressive first season back in the Premier League with Leander Dendoncker’s strike on 75 minutes securing a 1-0 win against already-relegated Fulham at Molineux on Saturday.
That result means Wolves will wrap up seventh place with a game to spare if Leicester City lose against title-chasers Manchester City on Monday.
And, if Watford lose to City in the FA Cup final on May 18, that will ensure Wolves a place in next season’s Europa League.

But Nuno was keen to discuss how far the club has come since he took over the reins in summer 2017 as opposed to the possibility of being in European competition next term. He said: “It’s nothing to do with the table, it’s the how.
We started with 18 players plus the goalkeepers. “Training every day, working every day, competing at all the games, the how is much more important. “To do it requires the commitment of the players and staff – everyone.
The chef who prepares the chicken after the game is important. “It started two years ago and we will never forget where we came from. The FA Cup still has to be played, it would be stupid to think about that (Europe).”
