Wolves winger Pedro Neto may miss the rest of the season after suffering a second serious hamstring injury.
The Portuguese international missed eight weeks with a hamstring injury earlier in the campaign before making his comeback at the end of 2023.
Neto was substituted at half-time against Newcastle with a sore hamstring on the opposite leg to the first injury, but started the game against Fulham a week later where he pulled up.
Now, after the crushing 3-2 FA Cup quarter-final loss to Coventry, Gary O'Neil revealed Neto could now miss the rest of the season.
"Pedro, potentially, it's the end of the season for him," O'Neil said.
"It's very similar to the injury he suffered on the other side.
"There's a chance he comes back for the last couple (games), maybe, if it goes really well."
When asked further on Neto's injury, O'Neil said: "It's similar to the last injury, which was around nine weeks, so potentially around that time frame.
"The rehab can go differently, so it could be quicker or slightly longer. We'll see how it goes."
Wolves are also without Matheus Cunha, Hwang Hee-chan, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde and Craig Dawson – but O'Neil was able to give a better update on their conditions.
"Bellegarde's knee is not as bad as we first feared," he added.
"It depends how the next couple of weeks go, he might be around for Aston Villa, if not it shouldn't be too long after.
