JULEN LOPETEGUI

  • Lopetegui confirmed striker Diego Costa will miss two to four weeks with the knee injury he suffered against Tottenham.

  • On other injuries, he said a decision on the availability of Hwang Hee-chan and Boubacar Traore will be made on Saturday, but they could both make the squad.

  • Lopetegui praised Newcastle and described them as “one of the best teams in the Premier League”.

  • On it being a year since a centre-forward has scored a league goal for Wolves, he said: “I am worried about the team, not only the forwards.”

  • He added he was “sure” their forwards would score and “as soon as possible” for their confidence.
