Neymar was forced off with a groin injury after just eight minutes of Brazil’s 1-0 victory over Cameroon in Milton Keynes on Tuesday.

A statement on the club’s official website read: “Neymar Jr and Kylian Mbappe have undergone medical examinations. A period of 48 hours of care will be observed to judge the clinical course.”

Neymar believes the injury he sustained is ‘nothing serious’. AFTER an initial poor start while they got to grips with the league, their season kicked off properly with an impressive 1-1 draw against Manchester City, which sparked a six-game unbeaten run.

Since then, one point from four matches has quelled that momentum but they still sit in 11th place GIVEN the money they’ve spent, the manner in which they stormed to the Championship title and the fact they’ve got some of the most exciting and talented players seen at Molineux for decades, survival isn’t really enough.

After years of underachievement, many fans would settle for that, but others have lofty expectations and the club certainly want a top-10 finish. Ambitious owners Fosun IT’LL be a 3-4-3 formation, you can be sure of that. Nuno Espirito Santo plays it every single week and the team’s back-of-the-hand familiarity with the same shape and tactics has
