Wolverhampton Wanderers wing-back Nelson Semedo has confirmed he will miss this weekend's clash against Chelsea and the remainder of the season due to injury. The Portugal international had only just returned from a hamstring issue that had kept him out for five Premier League matches.
Semedo, who joined Wolves from Barcelona in the summer of 2020 for around £27.5million, has been a regular under Bruno Lage this term. The 28-year-old has made 29 appearances across all competitions but was an unused substitute in the 0-0 draw against Chelsea at Molineux back in December.
After overcoming his hamstring injury, the defender featured in Wolves' previous two matches – against Burnley and Brighton and Hove Albion but has confirmed on Instagram he will not be available for the remainder of the campaign. Semedo wrote: "Unfortunately, I won't be able to play this season anymore. I just have to support the team in the games that remain and focus on recovery. See you next season."
