Danny Batth - The half-Indian prince on course for the Premier League

Let's take a look at how he has fared for Wolves.

# 1 Made his debut in August 2010 in a League Cup victory at home to Southend

#2 Scored his first Wolves goal, two years later, in the same competition versus Northampton Town.

2012/13: 14 appearances and 2 goals. This was the year that Wolves got relegated to the third tier of English football and became the first English side to suffer successive relegations from the top flight to the third tier.

2013/14: 50 appearances, 2 goals and 11 bookings. The year that Batth truly established himself in the Wolves backline as Wolves won the league with a record 103 points.

2014/15: 46 appearances, 4 goals and 7 bookings. Wolves narrowly missed out on the playoffs on goal difference, Batth again featured regularly and was a vital part of the team.

2015/16: 39 appearances, 2 goals and 2 bookings. A season to forget for Wolves as a season that was filled with so much promise at the beginning nearly resulted in the disaster of relegation.

2016/17: 41 appearances, 4 goals and 11 bookings. A transitional season for Wolves as they were taken over by Fosun International. They missed out on number one managerial target Julen Lopetegui as he took the Spain job, so had Walter Zenga for the first few games and then Paul Lambert who guided them to safety as they flirted with the drop once more.
