Wolves have announced a heavy injury blow suffered by Yerson Mosquera.
The summer signing was stretchered off in the opening 10 minutes of his senior debut during the Carabao Cup penalty shootout defeat to Tottenham on September 22.
Following an assessment by the club's medical staff, Wolves released a statement on Wednesday confirming the defender would require surgery and suggested the 20-year-old could be out for around five months.
The statement read: "Unfortunately, Yerson suffered a high grade hamstring injury in the Carabao Cup game with Tottenham Hotspur and is undergoing surgery this week in London.
"It is too early to give a return date as there is such variation in how quickly players heal and recover fitness, but as a guide 4-5 months is usual."
