 Hoult has been dropped with immediate effect |
West Brom have suspended goalkeeper Russell Hoult, 34, following newspaper articles about his private life. Hoult has been first choice since Tony Mowbray took over as manager in October but Pascal Zuberbuhler will deputise against Wolves in Sunday's FA Cup tie.
"Every club has its own disciplinary codes. The club will make a judgement in the next week," said Mowbray.
"After the investigation, we will make a decision. I would suggest that it will be after the game with Wolves."
Hoult joined the Baggies from Portsmouth in 2001 and quickly became a fan favourite, setting a new club record for the most clean sheets in a season.
Mowbray refused to be drawn on Hoult's future at the club.
"Has he a future? Let's wait and see. I don't want to pre-judge anything," he said.
"Russell dealt with the situation in a very professional manner. He was
told what was happening and accepted it. There were no tantrums."
