Benin City Born Striker Promoted To The Premier League With Wolverhampton Wanderers

Published: April 14, 2018

Benin City born striker Bright Enobakhare is poised to make his debut in the English Premier League next season after Wolverhampton Wanderers secured promotion to the topflight.

With Fulham failing to beat Brentford at Craven Cottage on Saturday evening, it means Wolves are guaranteed to finish at least second in the Championship with four games to spare.

To date, Enobakhare has made 19 appearances for Wolves in the Championship this season but has been missing from their match day squad in the last 12 matches due to a quad injury.

The attacker has played nonstop at the Molineux Stadium outfit for five years, having joined the club at the age of fifteen.

The pacy 20-year-old has scored once this season in the division, against Barnsley in September, and provided an assist in a 3-2 win at Hull City.

Nigeria international Carl Ikeme has played no part in Wolves' promotion to the Premier League as he is battling leukaemia.

Wolves, who have accumulated 92 points, will host Birmingham City on Sunday afternoon.
