Matthijs De Ligt Injury: Missing Thursday

De Ligt isn't in the squad for Thursday's clash with West Ham. "For Matta, it is a small thing. I expect to have Matthijs next game [at Molineux]."

De Ligt wasn't included in the squad for Thursday's clash, as it appears he was one of the two injury doubts (alongside Bruno Fernandes) that manager Ruben Amorim mentioned pre-match. Fernandes was deemed fit enough to start but De Ligt wasn't included in the squad. Ayden Heaven gets the start at center-back Thursday.
