Unsettled defender Jelle van Damme has admitted he could call time on his Wolves career in January after talks with Mick McCarthy.[LNB] The Belgium international only arrived at Molineux in a £2.5million deal from Anderlecht in the summer but has struggled to adapt to life in England.[LNB]The 26-year-old admitted last week that he was finding it hard to settle with his heavily pregnant wife still in their native country.[LNB]Van Damme, who has been hampered by injuries during his short spell in the Premier League, hinted that he could be prepared to move back to Anderlecht.[LNB]McCarthy has since held discussions with the left-back and the player claims that he could be allowed to leave when the transfer window reopens.[LNB]He told Belgian paper Het Belang van Limburg: "The coach asked me - if you had the chance to return to Anderlecht, would you do it? [LNB]"I have answered, yes. [LNB]"If we conclude in January it won't work between Wolverhampton both sides could leave as good friends."[LNB]Anderlecht supporters were singing van Damme's name in the wake of their Jupiler League defeat by Standard Liege last weekend.[LNB]But the defender insists that will not encourage him to return and despite his troubles he does not regret the move to the Premier League.[LNB]He added: "I have heard something about that, but this won't change my situation at all.[LNB]"Am I sorry I left? Sorry is a big word. At a certain moment Anderlecht and I made a decision."
