Middlesbrough injury update with one confirmed Wolves absentee and international players status

Middlesbrough manager Kim Hellberg confirmed that defender Alfie Jones will miss upcoming matches due to a calf injury. Jones sustained the injury against Norwich City and withdrew from international duty with Canada, but he will not feature in the upcoming match against Wolverhampton Wanderers or the subsequent fixtures next week.

Hellberg delivered a positive update regarding the rest of the squad ahead of the clash with Wolves. Nearly all international players returned to training, including England Under-21 players Will Lankshear, Amario Cozier-Duberry, Ashley Phillips, and USA midfielder Sebastian Berhalter, with only David Strelec arriving late Thursday afternoon.
