Mario Lemina has been stripped of the Wolves captaincy. Lemina clashed with West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen after Wolves' 2-1 defeat on Monday and then proceeded to push his own team-mates as they tried to calm in down and then square up to Wolves assistant coach Shaun Derry. Nelson Semedo replaces him as Wolves skipper, with Wolves boss Gary O'Neil confirming the incident against West Ham led to a conversation around the captaincy. 'Mario's fine,' said O'Neil.
'He'll still be around that group of senior players that lead the team, but at this moment we feel it's best for Nelson to lead the group.' Lemina's apology: We're going to fight to overcome this situationThe day after the game, Lemina took to social media to apologise for his actions. He wrote: 'I write this message with great hindsight and I really want to apologise to all the people who love this club and love football.
