Davies to miss Wolves finale

Wolves youngster Mark Davies will sit out the rest of the season after jarring his knee in training.
The 20-year-old midfielder recently returned to full-fitness after a year on the sidelines with shoulder problems and glandular fever.
But manager Mick McCarthy is taking no chances with the injury-plagued academy graduate, who he wants fit for the start of pre-season training.
"Mark has got bone bruising and his knee is in a brace to protect it," he told the club's official website. "He was back in full training and then just jarred his knee.
"It's a knockback for him and he has no chance of taking part in first-team action this season.
"He's a good little player and we would all like to see him back fit. When he's out training he's definitely a first-team player.
"It's been very difficult for him to have been out for so long.
"But he's getting the best possible treatment so let's hope he gets a bit of luck. We want him fully fit for the summer."
