Jose Sa was involved in a bust-up with Wolves fans during their 4-2 Premier League defeat to Bournemouth on Saturday.

Justin Kluivert became the first player in Premier League history to score a hat-trick of penalties, while Milos Kerkez also found the net for Andoni Iraola’s side.

Wolves, meanwhile, struck twice through Jorgen Strand Larsen but the defeat at Molineux leaves them 18th in the Premier League table.

With Wolves 3-1 down by half time, Sa confronted one angry supporter who had vented his frustration and was subsequently ejected after his verbal altercation with the goalkeeper.

Wolves boss Gary O’Neil insists he will give Sa his ‘full support’ over the incident.

‘I think situations like this that we’re in, as I say, has heightened emotions and responses,’ O’Neil said.

‘Jose Sa has my full support, whatever he needs from me he will get. He has my full support.

‘The passes he received today he shouldn’t have received. The first one he can clear much quicker. Of course he can.

‘None of the players have anything but my full support. We tackle this difficult situation together.

‘We have just gone four unbeaten in the Premier League against some tough opposition.

‘So we’ve had a bad day today, but it’s important not to overreact to a game that got away from us very, very early, and especially when we have two more big games coming in the next 10 days.’
