- Mason Mount (Missed the friendly against Brentford due to a slight calf strain)
- Diogo Dalot (Picked up a hamstring injury in the WC Quarterfinals, currently working away from the main group after suffering a hamstring injury and the full-back will not feature in the Carabao cup game vs Burnley)
- Wesley Fofana (Suffered another injury setback after injuring himself in the friendly against Brentford played on Tuesday, 20/12/22. Further updates to come.
- Reiss Nelson picked up a muscle injury against Juventus on 17/12/22.
- Wolves: “We have a problem with Jonny and ‘Bouba’ [Traore]. The rest of the players are ready.” Julen Lopetegui ahead of the Carabao cup game against Gillingham.
- Juan Larios and Tino Livramento are back in full training but they still require some time before returning to first-team action. Nathan Jones ahead of the Carabao cup game against Lincoln City.
Players returning from injury:
- Reece James played 60 minutes against Brentford in a friendly on 20/12/22 and should be available for GW17.
- Kyle Walker-Peters returned from his injury lay-off and started the Carabao cup game against Lincoln City on Tuesday, 20/12/22.
- Ben Davies is okay and started to work with us last week. He has recovered.
- Spurs: Bentancur and Davies – Rodrigo has started to work. I think that he’s going to be good for the game against Aston Villa in GW18(Bentancur is anyway suspended for GW17). Ben davies is fully ready and training already.
