Roberto De Zerbi’s latest on injuries to Xavi and Dominic Solanke at Wolves

Roberto De Zerbi has given us an replace on injuries to Dominic Solanke and Xavi Simons as we secured an important win at Wolves on Saturday.

Striker Dominic was pressured off after 40 minutes with a muscular harm, changed by Richarlison. Meanwhile, Roberto confirmed Xavi picked up a knee harm as he tussled with Hugo Bueno within the 63rd minute, changed by Lucas Bergvall.

Despite shedding two such influential gamers within the attacking third, we managed to dig out a win with a purpose from Joao Palhinha within the 82nd minute, pouncing from shut vary after Richarlison poked Pedro Porro’s nook at purpose – a much-needed first win of 2026.

Speaking to us afterwards on Dominic and Xavi, Roberto reported: “I hope both are not too important problems, especially for Xavi, because Solanke is a muscular injury. For Xavi, it’s a knee, and when there is a knee it’s a more tough situation.”

Asked later in regards to the injuries in his post-match press convention, Roberto added: “Solanke is a muscular harm. I do not know what degree of harm, and for Xavi it is an issue of the knee, and we’re going to see it within the subsequent days, Monday or Tuesday.

“For Solanke, it’s not a big problem. I don’t know how many games we lose him, but I would like to know the real situation of Xavi, because the knee is always different than the muscular injury. Xavi felt pain, but now I spoke with him two minutes ago, he feels better than at the beginning of the injury.”
