Sky Blues manager delivers an update on the severity of Liam Kelly’s hamstring injury in the latest Coventry City injury news from CoventryLive.
Liam Kelly’s insistence that his hamstring injury is not “major” has given Coventry City manager Mark Robins some positive news. The Sky Blues captain left the game against Blackburn Rovers in the middle of the first half on Wednesday night with what appeared to be a hamstring rupture, an injury that may keep a person out for weeks or even months.
The captain, however, has downplayed the issue to the point that he has refused to get a scan that would have revealed the degree of the tear and is instead focusing on his physical therapy. When asked for an update on the injury that prevents him from playing against Norwich City on Saturday at the CBS Arena, Robins responded, “Well, he feels that it’s not a significant thing. We are merely treating those symptoms and monitoring the situation, but I believe we will learn a little more over the next few days.Liam Kelly’s insistence that his hamstring injury is not “major” has given Coventry City manager Mark Robins some positive news.
