Wolves Face New Crisis: One Player Must Step Up Like Never Before at Molineux
Many Wolves fans were left anxious when the club failed to secure a new centre-back this summer – and now, their worst fears are coming true.
In Saturday’s clash against Aston Villa, Wolves defender Yerson Mosquera suffered a devastating knee injury, leaving the pitch on a stretcher. After the game, Gary O’Neil admitted, “It doesn’t look good,” sparking fears that Mosquera may be facing a potentially serious setback.
This is a cruel blow for the Colombian, who has already endured a tough time with injuries. Shortly after signing from Atletico Nacional in the summer of 2021, Mosquera missed a significant amount of football due to a severe hamstring injury. Now, with this latest setback, his hopes of solidifying a place in Wolves’ defense have taken another hit.
For Wolves, the timing couldn’t be worse. The club was already struggling with a shortage of centre-backs, and Mosquera’s absence only amplifies the defensive crisis. However, this unfortunate situation could present a huge opportunity for Santiago Bueno. With Mosquera sidelined, Bueno now has the chance to step up and prove himself as a key figure in Wolves’ backline.
