Ebanks-Blake was the Championship's top scorer last season

Wolves leading scorer Sylvan Ebanks-Blake has returned to Molineux for treatment after damaging his calf in training with England under-21s.

The 24-goal striker felt tightness in his calf while preparing for Friday's friendly in Norway.

Ebanks-Blake, 22, was back at his club's training ground for treatment on Wednesday morning, with a scan revealing a slight strain.

Wolves are optimistic he will be fit to face Birmingham on 6 April.

The former Plymouth striker has been in outstanding form for Mick McCarthy's side since joining the club in January 2008, scoring 36 league goals in only 59 appearances.
