Done for season

Johnstone (shoulder) is done for the season, according to manager Rob Edwards, per Liam Keen of the Express and Star. "[Sam] is out for the season."

Analysis: Johnstone will not return this season, as the goalie's absence has been confirmed as he deals with a shoulder injury. This will leave the club without their first backup option in net, only appearing in 12 games all season. He now won't play again until Wolves resume play in the Championship following relegation, leaving Daniel Bentley to serve as backup keeper behind Jose Sa.

Suffers shoulder injury

Johnstone (shoulder) is ruled out for Friday's clash against West Ham and could miss the remainder of the season, according to Liam Keen from Express and Star.

Analysis: Johnstone is dealing with a shoulder injury and will miss Friday's clash against West Ham, and could be sidelined for the rest of the season. The goalkeeper operates as the No. 2 option behind Jose Sa, so his absence is unlikely to be felt, with Daniel Bentley expected to serve as the backup in his place.
