Republic of Ireland striker Kevin Doyle is still hoping to be fit in time for the start of the English season. The Wolves man had a hernia operation recently but Wolves report that it should only see him miss two weeks of pre-season action.

The news makes Doyle extremely doubtful for the friendly against Australia on 12th August but will be hoping to be fully match-fit in time for September’s World Cup qualifier with Cyprus.

Quoted on the official Wolves website, the clubs medical team said,  “Kevin’s gone to a top specialist in Munich for treatment to repair a hernia which had been causing him minor irritation during pre-season. The decision was taken to address it sooner rather than later and we are confident he should resume training within a couple of weeks.”
