Wolves star Mario Lemina will have a new name on the back of his shirt, dedicated to his father following his passing, after the Premier League approved a request to change itThe Premier League have allowed Mario Lemina to change the name on the back of his Wolves shirt to 'Mario Jr' following the death of his father. The change to the back of his shirt, whilst a touching tribute, also means his young brother, Noha, can take the number 14 shirt with Lemina on the back. Now he will change the name on his shirt going forward after the Premier League chose to green light their decision after meeting with the board. We spoke to the Premier League, who ran it past their board, and we explained the circumstances – we’re a big family club and we explained why we wanted to do it. We’re very grateful to the Premier League for accepting this request.”The Wolves squad paid tribute to Lemina's father after beating Everton 3-0 last month.
