Wolves winger Pedro Neto may miss the rest of the season after a second hamstring injury.

The Portuguese international missed eight weeks earlier in the season with a hamstring injury.

Neto was substituted at half-time against Newcastle after pulling up and holding his hamstring on the other leg during his first injury.

He started the match against Fulham a week later, but was forced off due to injury just before half-time.

After Saturday’s 3-2 FA Cup quarter-final defeat to Coventry, Wolves boss Gary O’Neil told expressandstar.com: ‘Pedro, this may be the end of the season for him.

“It’s very similar to the injury he suffered on the other side.

“There’s a chance he’ll come back in the last few games, maybe, if things go really well.”

When asked further about Neto’s injury, O’Neil said: ‘It’s similar to the last injury, which lasted about nine weeks, so possibly around that time frame.

‘The rehabilitation can proceed differently, i.e. faster or a little longer. We’ll see how it goes.’

Wolves are also without Matheus Cunha, Hwang Hee-chan, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde and Craig Dawson.
