Plymouth Argyle defender Krisztian Timar could be back in time to face Wolves on the opening day of the season.

The Hungarian centre-half fractured his forehead on the last day of last season and was expected to miss up to a month of the 2008/09 campaign.

With Paul Wotton, club captain for most of the last decade, having left Plymouth this summer, Timar is set to lead the Devonshire side.

Club physio Paul Maxwell is confident that the defender will be fit enough to captain the side on August 9.

"I will be speaking to the surgeon in the next couple of days and we are hoping to get some head protection for him when the ball work starts, which will probably be Monday," Maxwell told the club's official website.
