Wolves’ star winger Michael Kightly is out for the remainder of the season after damaging a metatarsal in his left foot.

Kightly, 23, was injured in a friendly against Shrewsbury this week. Tests confirmed that he will miss the six remaining games of the season.

“If everything goes as well as we hope and we end up getting promoted, I’ll have missed out on all the excitement and the celebrating – I don’t think I’ll feel part of it,” a devastated Kightly told the club’s official website.
