Kevin Nolan "delighted" with what he's seen from Jake Wright

Kevin Nolan has revealed that he will continue to assess Sheffield United striker Jake Wright, depending on what the diagnosis is on a potential hand injury.

The 20-year-old, who shares the same name as the seasoned defender at Bramall Lane, played in the 1-1 draw with Carlton Town, but was taken off in the second half after an awkward landing.

“Mark Crossley has a good link with the Sheffield clubs so we had (Wright) over with us for the last week,” Nolan told the Nottingham Post.

“Unfortunately he took a bad knock to his hand so we had to send him for an X-ray.

“But I’ve been delighted with what I’ve seen from him. He’s a great lad and he’s eager to impress, perhaps a bit too much at times. That’s because he’s just trying to standout.

"We will wait to see what the medical staff say about his hand. But we are hoping to keep him for another week.

"Sheffield United have been great with us. If it comes off then great. Hopefully his hand is just bruising.”
