The BBC reported on the 13th (Korea time) 'Gary O'Neill Wolverhampton appointed defender Nelson Semedo as the new captain instead of Mario Lemina' he said.
Lemina argued with West Ham captain and striker Jarrod Bowen after his team lost 1-2 against West Ham recently. O'Neill and his teammates stopped him, but Lemina appeared unable to hold back her anger. He was even seen arguing with the team's coaches.
Lemina then bowed her head, saying, `I sincerely apologize to Wolves and those who love football.' However, internal and external views show that Wolverhampton's team, which is struggling with relegation with only two wins (three draws and 10 losses) in 15 games, has clearly shown how bad the team's atmosphere is.
On the reason for the captain's replacement, O'Neill said, "Mario is fine. But the most important thing is that everyone brings out the best power." He said "The problems were all over earlier this week. Now I'm focusing on the Ipswich match"Sometimes it's hard to deal with this, but I think it worked out well."," he added.

Hwang Hee-chan, who had played in three consecutive games, missed the last West Ham match. O'Neill used Joao Gomes, Gonzalo Guedes and Belgard in the attack against West Ham. Hwang Hee-chan, who started only two out of six games this season, is said to have revealed that his absence against West Ham is still not strengthening his position in the team.
Therefore, there are also observations that Hwang Hee-chan will leave through the winter transfer market. In Europe, there are also comments that there are teams interested in Hwang Hee-chan if he comes to the transfer market. However, the key is whether Wolverhampton, who is struggling with relegation, will continue to stick to O'Neill's system. If O'Neill is replaced and a new head coach takes over the team, there is room for a change in Hwang Hee-chan's position.
