Vinagre was in action for Wolves in their Premier League game against Norwich City at the Molineux Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The 20-year-old left wing-back did not start the match, but the Portugal Under-20 international came on as a substitute in the 80th minute.
The youngster had been on the sidelines for over a month due to a hamstring issue, and he has expressed his delight on Twitter at making his return to the team.
Unbelievable feeling of coming back to the pitch, it was 5 weeks of hard work to get back fast and strong as possible!
