Henry ready for Wolves return

Skipper Karl Henry has handed Wolves a boost by declaring himself fit for Sunday's showdown with midlands rivals Leicester at Molineux.

The combative midfielder has missed the club's last three games since limping out of August's 3-1 victory over Barnsley with a hamstring strain.

But Henry returned to training on Tuesday and is eager to help kick-start Wolves' npower Championship campaign against the Foxes.

"I'm feeling good," he told the club's official website. "It was a slight tweak of the hamstring but thankfully nothing too serious. I have missed a couple of games but am back now and ready to be available for Sunday.

"Training on Tuesday was good although the other lads might say I wasn't so good. It was just nice to be back out there even though I've not been out for long."

Wolves have won just one of their first four league fixtures, and Henry added: "Leicester on Sunday is a huge game and the first of what I think is six in the next two weeks and hopefully we can put some wins together. I think every team in this division - on their day - can beat any others and it's about showing the right grit and determination to get the result."
