England manager Roy Hodgson believes that Stale Solbakken is an "excellent appointment" for Wolves.

England manager Roy Hodgson has given his approval to new Wolverhampton Wanderers boss Stale Solbakken.

The 44-year-old Norwegian, who surprised many when he was given the role on Friday, played under Hodgson at FC Copenhagen 12 years ago.

"I'm delighted because he is a good friend but also because I think it is an excellent appointment and I think it is a good, exciting move by Wolves," Hodgson told the Express & Star.

"It's not an appointment many would have expected from a part of Europe from which English clubs do not usually recruit.

"But I can tell Wolves fans they have hired a superb coach – Stale is a bright, young and impressive coach with good ideas and I am confident he will do well."
