Coventry City Manager Provides Devastating Injury Update

Jamaican international Kasey Palmer has suffered a muscular tear in recent days and will miss the next six to eight weeks, following in the footsteps of Ben Sheaf and Milan Van Ewijk.

The Sky Blues currently have five players out of action due to injury. Long-term casualties Fabio Tavares and Callum O’Hare are close to returning to the first-team setup but aren’t expected to return before the international break.

Meanwhile, Van Ewijk, Sheaf and Palmer have all suffered muscular tears and are out for the next six to eight weeks, placing further pressure on Mark Robins’ side to get a result.

Coventry City conceded a 95th-minute equaliser against Huddersfield Town to slip to their fifth draw in the Championship this season.

Worryingly, the Sky Blues have won just once in all competitions this season and currently sit 18th in the division. Mark Robins’ side is next in action on Saturday as they travel to Queens Park Rangers hoping for their first away win of the season.

“Kasey is injured and going to be out for six-eight weeks. He’s got an adductor tear and I don’t know when he did it. It’s the same injury as Ben Sheaf. He’s done it in a game but I don’t know when. Ben did his in training. Milan did his in a game.”
