It is quite likely that fans witnessed the final appearance of one Wolves player wearing their shirt in the match against Brighton.
The Wolves were eliminated from the Carabao Cup after suffering a 3-2 defeat to Brighton at the Amex Stadium.
The scoring was opened by Carlos Baleba for the hosts after he intercepted Joao Gomes and took a shot from the edge of the box. Simon Adingra doubled the lead for Brighton, but Goncalo Guedes managed to score his third goal of the season just before half-time to give Wolves hope.
Although Wolves had opportunities to equalize, they lacked the necessary finishing touch. Ferdi Kadioglu scored a third goal for Brighton, with Tommy Doyle adding a consolation for Wolves.
The defeat was disappointing for Wolves, with some players delivering lackluster performances. It is also possible that Jose Sa played his final match for the team.
Jose Sa made a start against Brighton in his first appearance since the Saudi transfer window closed. Although there were rumors of him moving to the SPL, nothing materialized, and Wolves purchased Sam Johnstone for £10 million, indicating Sa’s potential departure.
Sa remained on the sidelines for a while due to a difficult period. His performance against Brighton was lackluster, with fans noting a lack of confidence and mistakes in goalkeeping.
With Johnstone establishing himself as the new number one goalkeeper, it is increasingly unlikely that Sa will feature for Wolves again, especially with the team out of the Carabao Cup. Even if Johnstone is unavailable, the likelihood of O’Neil turning to Bentley over Sa has increased.
The unsettled situation of Sa, who was previously linked to a move to Saudi Arabia, has clearly affected his performance. It seems that his disappointing display against Brighton may have marked the end of his time at Wolves.
