2025 Fantasy Outlook
Strand Larsen made the switch to Wolves from Celta Vigo last season and produced from the jump. The striker scored 14 goals and added four assists, triggering a clause in his contract that made his loan to Wolves a permanent deal. Despite the departure of Matheus Cunha, he should still see similar work in the new season. Cunha ripped plenty of shots himself, while Strand Larsen's activity in the box allows him to get shots and score goals no matter who is on the pitch with him. Topping 15 goals seems like a stretch for a player in this team, but hitting 10-plus goals and a few assists seems like a good projection for Strand Larsen.
Won't play vs. Newcastle
Strand Larsen (Achilles) is out for Saturday's game against Newcastle United. "[Jorgen] Strand Larsen won't play against Newcastle as the injury is a bit more serious than we first thought," manager Vitor Pereira said during his pre-match press conference Friday.
ANALYSIS
The Norwegian striker missed the 3-2 defeat against Everton before the international break due to a minor Achilles injury, but according to Pereira, the injury was more severe than initially expected. This means Hwang Hee-Chan could remain in the starting lineup. The South Korea striker bagged a goal in the loss to Everton. Strand Larsen's next chance to play will come against Leeds United on Saturday, Sep. 20.

Suffers Achilles injury
Strand Larsen missed Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Everton due to a minor Achilles injury, coach Vitor Pereira said in a press conference. "Jorgen got a kick in the game against Bournemouth, and after Bournemouth, he tried to train and he still had the pain. After we played with him around 25 minutes in the last game, and at the end of the game, the pain increased the level and the inflammation in the Achilles tendon was a danger, and I could not risk a player like this. It was not about Newcastle it was not about this. I know the player very well and he has a good character, strong character, and he did an exam in the Achilles and he has the injury. It's not serious, but it's a situation that he cannot play when like this."
