Wolves' Hwang Hee-chan stretchered off against Fulham with suspected hamstring injury

Blow for Wolves as Hwang Hee-chan suffers suspected hamstring injury in Fulham draw
Wolves forward Hwang Hee-chan was stretchered off in tears during the second half of his side's 1-1 draw with Fulham on Saturday.
The South Korea international pulled up sharply after chasing a ball down the left flank and immediately signaled to the bench that he could not continue.
Hwang was visibly distraught as he left the field on a stretcher, and his injury is a major blow to Wolves, who are already without a number of key players.
The 26-year-old has been one of Wolves' most impressive performers this season, scoring four goals in 12 Premier League appearances.
His injury will come as a major concern to Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui, who is already without the likes of Diego Costa, Boubacar Traore, and Sasa Kalajdzic.
Wolves are next in action on Tuesday when they travel to Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
It remains to be seen whether Hwang will be fit to feature in that game, but his absence would be a major blow to Wolves' hopes of reaching the semi-finals.

Circumstances suggest Wolves star might have actually just played his last game
Hwang's injury could not have come at a worse time for Wolves, who are already struggling to score goals.
Without Hwang, Lopetegui will be forced to field a weakened team against Nottingham Forest, and it would be no surprise if Wolves were to crash out of the Carabao Cup.
If Hwang is ruled out for a significant period of time, it could have a major impact on Wolves' season.
The club are currently 19th in the Premier League, and they could be dragged into a relegation battle if they are unable to find a way to replace Hwang's goals.
Wolves fans will be hoping that Hwang's injury is not as serious as first feared, but the circumstances suggest that he might have actually just played his last game for the club.
