Wolves have been rocked by the news that defender Yerson Mosquera has been ruled out for the rest of the season.
The Premier League ’s basement boys were sweating on the outcome of a scan but it is bad news for the Colombian.
He has suffered severe damage. It is understood that he will be going under the knife to have an operation on both his anterior and medial knee ligaments.
The 23-year-old has been on Wolves ’ books since 2021 and has been loaned out to FC Cincinnati and Villareal before making his first league appearance for Gary O’Neil’s side against Arsenal at the Emirates on the opening day of this season.

Head of high performance, Phil Hayward, said: “Yerson has now had all of the various assessments and scans which unfortunately confirm injuries to the medial collateral ligament and the anterior cruciate ligament.
“We will be visiting specialists in the coming days to finalise the plan for surgery; this will take place in the next two weeks.
“There is a long recovery period ahead for Yerson and the club will be providing all the support he needs to ensure a successful rehabilitation and a return to competition in due course.
“Timescales are difficult to state prior to surgery but it is highly unlikely he will feature again this season.”
