However first team coach Vitor Pereira confirmed that Cunha would not return to the starting line-up following a run of one draw and three consecutive wins since his suspension.

The 25-year-old signed a new contract in January making him the highest paid player in Wolves' history. But the deal included a £62.5m minimum fee release clause that is widely expected to be activated by multiple clubs when the transfer window re-opens.

The cryptic post was quickly deleted, however the forward did reply on social media to Talking Wolves, seemingly not happy about the current situation.

He replied: "Do you know what you want? For people to not like me here, unfortunately I'm going to the field to solve the problem of your favourite club. I'm not here looking for alternatives to be someone important. Fans root for their own, they don't create misfortunes all the time."
