Wolves’ manager, Gary O’Neil, announced during a news conference on Friday that full-back Nelson Semedo has been appointed as the team’s new captain. Semedo is set to commence his leadership role starting with Saturday’s match against Ipswich. The Portugal international assumes the captaincy from Mario Lemina. This transition occurred after discussions between O’Neil and Lemina earlier in the week. Lemina had been involved in an altercation with West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen following Monday’s 2-1 loss at London Stadium, an incident about which O’Neil stated such scenes “can’t happen”.
