Winless Wolves Suffer Mosquera ACL Injury Blow

Mosquera suffered the injury in the 3-1 defeat at Aston Villa over the weekend.

The 23-year-old Colombia international has started all five Premier League games for Gary O'Neill's side this season after returning from last season's loan spell at Villarreal.

Wolves are bottom of the Premier League table, having picked up just one point from their five games and host Liverpool this weekend.

Wolves' head of high performance Phil Hayward said: "Yerson has now had all of the various assessments and scans which unfortunately confirm injuries to the medial collateral ligament (MCL) and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).

"We will be visiting specialists in the coming days to finalise the plan for surgery; this will take place in the next two weeks.

"Timescales are difficult to state prior to surgery but it is highly unlikely he will feature again this season."
