Wolves scorer Sasa Kalajdzic can look forward to some happier times after a nightmare first 12 months in England.

Kalajdzic ruptured his ACL on debut against Southampton last September and his heroic cameo at Goodison was his second outing since.

The 6ft 7in Austrian celebrated his 87th-minute winner by stuffing the ball under his shirt as a dedication to his pregnant fiancée Lorena.

‘We’re very happy and I wanted to keep the news for a special occasion!’ said the likeable striker.

‘A lot of bad things happened over the last year, I am even happier things are going like this now.

‘It’s been a long journey for me and I am taking it step-by-step, but this was an important one for me. It has been very tough. Hard. Challenging.

‘But I worked really hard, everyone around me and at home worked really hard, and it makes it more special.’
