Wolverhampton Wanderers boss Vitor Pereira spoke about new signing Marshall Munetsi for the first time, and was also asked when the ex-Orlando Pirates star would be making his debut.
The Zimbabwean joined the Premier League outfit in the January transfer window, signing a three-and-a-half-year deal which includes a further 12-month extension option.

The side also secured the services of defenders Nasser Djiga and Emmanuel Agbadou, and Pereira believes that the trio will have an immediate impact on the side.
When speaking about Munetsi, the Portuguese tactician was full of praise for the various aspects of the former Buccaneers star's game.
"Physically, he's a very strong player. He is a player who goes box-to-box, strong in the duels, strong in the air, with a good quality of pass and he runs a lot," he said per the club's official website.

"He's a player that can bring us the physicality that we need, the solutions that we need in the middle," the manager added.
"Because the experience that we had before, when we had Andre out one game, we had problems, then we had Joao [Gomes] out for another game.
"[Jean-Ricner] Bellegarde did very well, and he was – for me – in this position a very good surprise, but I think now the squad is more balanced."
Wolves are facing Blackburn Rovers in an FA Cup tie on Sunday, but Pereira remained tight-lipped about whether the trio would be making their debuts in the encounter.
"They need some time to understand what I want from them and to connect with their teammates, for sure, but they will not need a long time to do it."
