Hwang Hee-chan - Out at least four weeks Hwang (hamstring) is expected to miss four-to-five weeks, according to manager Julen Lopetegui.

Impact This is further confirmation on the injury for Hwang, who had started six-straight league matches prior to this hamstring injury. Wolves fortunately have a few options they can use in their attack, as Pablo Sarabia and Matheus Cunha are plenty versatile, in addition to bench regulars Adama Traore and Daniel Podence.

Boubacar Traore - Working on pitch Traore (groin) was pictured working on the pitch individually following groin surgery.

Impact Fortunately for Traore, groin surgery is usually one of the quicker ones to recover from and he's already working with the ball, which is a great sign. He'll likely need a week of full training before he's an option again, though when he's ready to return, he probably won't have a starting role in Julen Lopetegui's new-look squad.

Hwang Hee-chan - Likely out several weeks Hwang is expected to miss multiple weeks with a hamstring injury suffered Saturday against Liverpool, according to manager Julen Lopetegui. "For a lot of weeks we are going to lose...

Impact It's unfortunate for Hwang, who was on his sixth-straight start with the club following the World Cup. While he's struggled for goals this season, he's done enough to earn the favor of the new manager. With an expectation to miss time, Adama Traore is an option to enter the XI, though there are a few players Lopetegui can turn to.

Jose Sa - Two saves for win Sa recorded two saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Liverpool.

Impact Sa faced only two shots from a poor Liverpool attack and came away with the win during Saturday's clash. The goalkeeper also earned a clean sheet in what turned into a very stable showing. Sa will hope to keep this going as Wolves look to claw away from the relegation zone.

Adama Traore - Assists off bench Traore assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Liverpool.

Impact Traore came off the bench for the second half Saturday and got on the scoresheet with his first assist. The winger has fallen to a more minimal role in 2022/23, but still has some upside when on the pitch. That said he is right around on pace for five goal contributions, right in line with his recent seasons.

Craig Dawson - Nets on debut Dawson scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 win against Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 49th minute...

Impact Dawson got off to the perfect start with his new club, scoring early and earning a clean sheet in his first match. The center-back couldn't have dreamed of a better start, though this offensive upside is almost certainly the outlier, not the norm. Dawson seems to be an immediate part of the Wolves starting setup.

Ruben Neves - Returns to goals Neves scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 win over Liverpool.

Impact Neves got back on the scoresheet for the first time since November with a goal to put Liverpool away Saturday. The defensive midfielder isn't often a major offensive threat but has scored five times in 20 matches, already matching his previous season-high.

Hwang Hee-chan - Forced off with injury Hwang was forced off in the first half of Saturday's match against Liverpool due to injury.

Impact Hwang was integral in Wolves' first goal of the match, slotting a low cross that was turned into the Liverpool net by Joel Matip. Unfortunately, Hwang left the match in the 42nd minute after receiving treatment and being replaced.

Boubacar Traore - Successful groin surgery Traore recently had surgery on his groin as he will continue to be sidelined for the Wolves, the club announces.

Impact Traore suffered a setback on his groin injury last month and has begun a rehab assignment. "Bouba was recently operated on and has started his rehabilitation" the team said. The veteran Joao Moutinho will continue to take his place in the midfield for the Wolves.

Pedro Neto - Will begin training soon Neto is expected to start training soon as he continues to recover from an ankle injury, the team announced.

Impact Neto has been out since Oct 8 with an ankle injury and has yet to begin full training. "Neto will soon begin training fully with the team and we hope he will be back playing soon" the team said. Adama Traore will continue to play in his place, but will soon see the bench once he returns.

Boubacar Traore - Signing on with Wolves Traore will begin a four-year contract with Wolverhampton after his loan from Metz ends.

Impact Traore has apparently shown enough to stick around at Wolves, having started four matches and appeared in eight in league play this season. He probably won't have a huge role the rest of the season given recent signings, but he figures to at least be an option for Julen Lopetegui once healthy.

Daniel Bentley - Transfers to Wolves Bentley has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Wolverhampton after transferring from Bristol City, the club announced Wednesday.

Impact Bentley has kept 64 clean sheets in 260 Championship games throughout his time with Brentford and Bristol City, and the 29-year-old goalkeeper is now making the step up to the Premier League with Wolves as the backup to Jose Sa.

Craig Dawson - Signs with Wolves Dawson signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Wolverhampton from West Ham.

Impact Dawson changes teams despite starting eight matches for the Hammers this season and 30 the prior campaign. However, due to new signings, he was set for a depth role at center-back, something he'll hold at Wolves with Max Kilman and Nathan Collins the likely center-backs of the future.

Raul Jimenez - Quiet half against Man City Jimenez made a clearance and won one of one tackles in Sunday's 3-0 defeat against Manchester City.

Impact Jimenez was once again ineffective from center forward on Sunday and he was replaced by Matheus Cunha at halftime. Wolves are still the lowest-scoring team in the Premier League, so even though it looks dire for Jimenez right now he could cement a more stable presence in the XI if he can start putting the ball in the back of the net.

Pablo Sarabia - Takes three shots in loss Sarabia subbed into Sunday's match against Manchester City at halftime and he took three shots in the 3-0 defeat.

Impact Sarabia was very active on his Wolves debut Sunday, and he is likely to get some starts once he is able to further integrate with his new team, which is currently the lowest-scoring squad in the Premier League.

JANUARY 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Podence - Takes three shots off bench Podence subbed into Sunday's match against Manchester City in the 67th minute, taking three shots (one on target) and creating two chances in the 3-0 defeat.

Impact Podence added some much-needed impetus to his team's attack when he subbed in on Sunday, but it wasn't enough to get on the score sheet against the two-time defending Premier League champions. But he's scored three goals across his last five appearances and needs to stay hot from the left wing as Wolves are still the lowest-scoring team in the Premier League.

JANUARY 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jose Sa - Concedes three goals to Man City Sa made three saves but conceded three goals in Sunday's 3-0 defeat against Manchester City.

Impact Sa was beaten by an Erling Haaland hat trick on Sunday as his team currently sit just one spot above the relegation zone, only ahead of Bournemouth on goal differential. Next up for him in a few weeks will be a clash against ninth-placed Liverpool, which have scored 34 times in 19 matches this season.

Pablo Sarabia - On bench against Man City Sarabia is in Wolves' match day squad for Sunday's clash against Manchester City.

Impact Sarabia is available to make his Wolves debut Sunday after joining the club from PSG last week.
