Wolves Forgotten Defender Isaac Okoronkwo has now joined up with the Nigerian Squad for the African Nations Cup but is still desperate for a chance to play for Wolves.

 Okoronkwo, who signed for Wolves in the Summer is yet to make a Premiership Appearance for Wolves this season and has found himself at the back of the defending pecking order.

 However the Nigerian International has now joined up with his Nigerian Team mates for the African Nations Cup.

 "It was a relief to be chosen [for the ANC] because it has been a frustrating time for me at Wolves" Said Isaac.

 Okoronkwo has been left confused and angry about is lack of football for Wolves.

 "The people who are playing in the [Wolves] team are not better than me, there is something else causing the problem. I don`t know what it is exactly because I spoke with Dave Jones a few times and he didn`t tell me what it was. He just told me I needed time" Said Okoronkwo.

 Okoronkwo is the second player to link up with his team for the African Nations Cup. Wolves inspirational striker Henri Camara linked up with Senegal after the Charlton Match despite a plea from Wolves to allow him to play in the Manchester United and Liverpool games.
