Gary O’Neil sends a heartfelt message to Wolves supporters over the 29-year-old’s incident.

Gary O’Neil has urged supporters not to forget Jonny Castro Otto’s successful Wolves career following the disciplinary action taken against him.

“It’s been dealt with. Jonny is still a fantastic player for the football club and he has been involved in some incredible moments here. Some fantastic seasons.

“Things happen in football; they’re dealt with and we move on. We’ll see what happens in the future.”

When asked how involved he was in the decision to ban Jonny from first team duties, O’Neil added, “Everything impacts the group and I’m always on top of everything that can impact what we’re trying to be and what we are, positive or negative.

When asked how involved he was in the decision to ban Jonny from first team duties, O’Neil added, “Everything impacts the group and I’m always on top of everything that can impact what we’re trying to be and what we are, positive or negative.

“I was involved in all of the decision-making around it. People above me made decisions as well, but I was involved in all discussions and we landed on what we think is best for the group and the football club.”

Jonny could have left in the summer, with Spanish side Getafe among those interested and he is now expected to depart in the coming weeks.

When asked directly if Jonny would leave in January, O’Neil said, “The statement from the club told you everything at the moment, really. He’s going to stay out of our group until the end of January and then we’ll see where everything is.

“There’s no further update or more detail I can add to that. Jonny will continue to work and play with the under-21s until then.”
