CHERRIES boss Eddie Howe admits David Brooks and Callum Wilson are “still some way away” from a return to action.
Winger Brooks did not feature in defeats to Liverpool and Cardiff due to an ankle issue, while a knee problem has kept out striker Wilson since mid-January.
Speaking ahead of Cherries’ clash with Wolves at Vitality Stadium tomorrow, Howe said: “They are improving quickly but this game has come too quickly for them.
“It’s very difficult to know exactly when they will return. We haven’t seen them in training yet or on the grass. They are still some way away.”
Howe will make a late call on Junior Stanislas (hip flexor) but on-loan defender Nathaniel Clyne is available again and Charlie Daniels will be considered for selection.
Lewis Cook and Simon Francis remain long-term absentees.
