'Calf issue' - Fabian Hurzeler confirms latest injury blow for Brighton ahead of Wolves
All the latest team and injury news for Brighton ahead of the trip to Wolves
Defender Joel Veltman has been ruled out of Brighton’s trip to Wolves this Sunday.
The experienced defender picked up a “small issue” in the 3-1 away win at Chelsea last week and is expected to return after the international break.
Head coach Fabian Hurzeler said: “Joel Veltman has a small issue in the game against Chelsea but he will be back after the international break.
“He has a small injury on his calf. He felt it in the first half was able to continue. He had a scan.
“I'm not concerned because we have several options.”
Veltman, 34, has started the last four matches in the Premier League and the two League Cup fixtures as Mats Wieffer gets back to full fitness following a knee issue.
Wieffer should be good to go from the start at Wolves having been a substitute in the draw against Tottenham and the win at Stamford Bridge.
Adam Webster (knee) and Solly March (knee) remain the long term absentees with Jack Hinshelwood (ankle) making good progress and expected to return after the international break.
