Brighton's star player Danny Welbeck has been in top form this season, but unfortunately, he may not be able to participate in this weekend's Premier League clash against Wolves. The 33-year-old suffered a back injury during their last game against Newcastle, where he scored the winning goal. Despite his impressive performance, Welbeck's injury has left him in serious discomfort and his availability for the upcoming game is uncertain.
Manager Fabian Hurzeler is hopeful that Welbeck will be able to play, but he cannot confirm it just yet. The team will assess his condition after today's training session and make a decision accordingly. Hurzeler explained that Welbeck was hit on a nerve during the game, causing him to lose feeling in his leg for a period of time. This type of injury can be very painful and the team's physios are working hard to get him back on the field as soon as possible.
Brighton's success this season has been partly due to Welbeck's contributions, with five goals in just eight Premier League games. However, his absence may open up an opportunity for other players to step up and fill his role. Yankuba Minteh and Joao Pedro are also doubtful for the game, with the latter still recovering from an ankle injury sustained in September. Hurzeler expressed that they will have to be patient with Pedro's recovery, but he is hopeful that the Brazilian will be back on the pitch soon.
Despite the potential setbacks, Hurzeler remains positive and is determined to lead his team to victory against Wolves. He acknowledged that it will be a challenge, but he is confident that the team will rise to the occasion. The Athletic reported that Minteh is also dealing with a minor muscle injury, but the team is doing everything they can to get their players fit for the game.
In the meantime, Brighton has climbed to fifth place in the Premier League table, and they hope to maintain their momentum with another win this weekend. Hurzeler is focused on the present and is not looking too far ahead, but he remains optimistic about Pedro's return. He believes that the Brazilian will be back in action soon, but he cannot give an exact date at this time. With patience and hard work, Brighton is determined to overcome these obstacles and continue their success on the field.
