Matt Doherty took to social media to share a heartfelt reflection on the turbulent journey he has experienced with Wolves throughout the season. Many may have underestimated the impact the 31-year-old Irishman would have upon his return to Molineux in 2023, but Doherty quickly proved his worth by seamlessly transitioning into a vital role as a right-centre back under Vitor Pereira’s tactical system.Acknowledging the highs and lows of the campaign, Doherty expressed his sincere gratitude to the dedicated Wolves supporters for their unwavering backing, especially during the more challenging moments.
He emphasized the need for significant improvements during the off-season and pre-season to prepare the team for competing at a top level in the upcoming Premier League season, highlighting the privilege he feels in representing the great club of Wolves.In light of Nelson Semedo’s potential departure, speculation has arisen regarding who will fill the captaincy role for the team. With Doherty boasting over 300 club appearances and a wealth of experience, he emerges as a strong candidate for the leadership position. However, the younger and equally dependable Joao Gomes could also be considered as a long-term option due to his impressive leadership qualities at just 24 years old.
Throughout his message, Doherty’s dedication to the club and commitment to its success shines through, solidifying his status as a respected figure within the Wolves community. As the team navigates its way through the offseason preparations, the prospect of potential captaincy decisions adds another layer of intrigue to an already eventful journey for Matt Doherty and his team.
