Hide AdSasa Kalajdzic - Out
Kalajdzic will be out until February time with a knee injury. Former boss Gary O’Neil had said: “He's back on the grass, which is great for him. He's now starting to get to the more functional aspects of his rehab. Over the next few months, we'll be integrating more ball work and then hopefully get him back into training and matches in the not-too-distant future.”
Boubacar Traore - Out
Traore is expected to return from a knee injury some time in February.
Pablo Sarabia - Out
Sarabia is out until early January with a calf strain.
Mario Lemina - Doubt
Wolves boss Vitor Pereira has said of Lemina: “I think it is a small injury, but I didn't want to take the risk [on Sunday] because we don't have a lot of midfielders. I hope that he is able to help us [vs Man United].”
Vicario - Out
Vicario will be out with his ankle injury until the Spring. Ange Postecoglou said: “Typical Vic, he's pushing every boundary. He's still a fair bit away, but he'll make sure he's back as quickly as possible. He's still around the group and invested in what we're doing. He's progressing well.”

Hide AdRicharlison - Out
The Brazilian will not return until mid-January. Postecoglou has previously said: “Richarlison, hopefully, he'll be back in the New Year but, again, similar to Micky (van de Ven), we've got to be careful every step of the way.”
Djed Spence - Out (Suspended)
Spence is suspended after picking up a red card last time out.
Ben Davies - Out
Davies is likely to return in time for the first round up the FA Cup. Postecoglou said: “Ben is not as bad as first thought. There is a chance he could be back hopefully before the new year, so that was positive again.”
Radu Dragusin - Doubt
Dragusin had to come off against Forest, with Postecoglou saying: “He was a bit sore. He hurt his ankle and said he couldn't continue, so we'll just have to wait and see.”
Wilson Odobert - Out
Odobert is a long-term absentee after undergoing surgery.
We still haven’t heard much about Romero’s injury, but he will remain out here.
Again, Postecoglou hasn’t been too clear on this, but he has said van de Van will likely be out for a little while.
