Captain change at Wolverhampton after Lemina's clash in West Ham match
The match between West Ham and Wolverhampton ended with an unpleasant incident when Wolves captain Mario Lemina got into a scuffle with West Ham's Jarrod Bowen. Following this altercation, Wolverhampton head coach Gary O’Neil has made some decisive changes.
Details: As the coach explained, due to this incident, Lemina has been stripped of the captaincy, with right-back Nélson Semedo now taking over the armband.
Quote: "We can’t have scenes like what happened with West Ham, but I get along very well with Mario. We have a lot of respect for each other. Mario is fine—it was a conversation, nothing more. Last night pushed us to have that talk, but it was a discussion that needed to happen. Now we move forward and have dealt with it," O’Neil said during a press conference.
