Hwang Hee-chan - Back with team Hwang (calf) is back in training with the team but his availability for Sunday's game against Burnley is uncertain, manager Vitor Pereira told media during Friday's pre-match press...

Impact The South Korean striker suffered the injury while on international duty. While his return to training is positive, it remains to be seen whether he'll be fit enough to suit up and be an option for Pereira. Given that Jorgen Strand Larsen is playing through pain due to an Achilles injury, having Hwang back in the mix would be crucial for a Wolves team that has struggled on offense all season long. Hwang has one goal on six appearances (four starts) in 2025-26.
