Kenny Jackett backs Wolves striker Benik Afobe to rediscover form

By , Football League Editor
Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Kenny Jackett believes that it is only a matter of time before Benik Afobe rediscovers his scoring touch.

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Kenny Jackett has insisted that Benik Afobe will soon be back to his best goalscoring form.

After scoring 35 goals in 55 games for MK Dons and Wolves over the last two seasons, Afobe has managed just four in 14 and failed to net in his last five for the Black Country club.

Jackett said that the former Arsenal man has been working hard to rediscover his touch.

"Ben's been a big player for us and is working hard to prove himself and get back to his top form," Jackett told BBC WM 95.6.

Wolves have lost four and won just one of their last six matches to lie 14th in the Championship, nine points behind the playoff places.
