Coventry City boss provides injury update on Sheaf, Wright, Torp, Dovin and Borges Rodrigues
Coventry City injury news from CoventryLive as Mark Robins provides an update on five players who have picked up pre-season injuries
Mark Robins was left counting the cost of another injury to one of his key Coventry City players after a comfortable 3-1 pre-season win at League One Stevenage.
Star midfielder Ben Sheaf limped off just minutes after going on midway through the second half with what the Sky Blues boss thinks is an ankle injury. He joins Haji Wright, Victor Torp, Raphael Borges Rodrigues and Oliver Dovin in the treatment room.
Providing an update on his injured players, first asked how bad the latest injury is for Sheaf, Robins said: “I don’t know. He just took his time on a pass when they were pressing and I think it just caught him.
“He tried to play the ball with the outside of his foot and I think he might have had some pressure applied by the studs of one of their players, and he may have turned his ankle a little bit, so I don’t know yet. But he was clearly too uncomfortable to carry on.”
