Walter Zenga: 'I have enough players for two teams'

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Walter Zenga suggests that he is happy to rotate his entire team for Championship fixtures this season.

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Walter Zenga has said that he intends to "involve everyone" in his first-team squad as he attempts to keep the club towards the top of the Championship table.

After Fosun International completed a successful takeover of the club, Wolves made a dozen summer signings to take their squad to 31 when each player is fully fit.

However, Zenga sees the issue of squad rotation as a positive as he looks to contend with the club's hectic schedule until the end of the year.

The 56-year-old BBC WM: "I can play one team on Tuesday and one on Saturday. It's a long, competitive season. It is not just the seven games we have coming up in the space of 22 days. It is also the games we have after that. From now to January it could be 25, 26 or 27. We need to be organised in the right way.

"To play with the same XI, then I do not need to have 23 players. But in the long term, playing with the same XI can bring problems. It depends on injuries and international calls.

"My philosophy is to involve everyone in the squad. It keeps everyone fresh with a new mentality."

Wolves host Burton Albion at Molineux on Saturday afternoon.
