This week’s medical update brings positive news across the board, with several players making encouraging progress in their rehabilitation programmes and moving closer to a return to full training.

Harry Pinchard | Knee | Expected return to play – End of September

Harry has entered the final stages of his rehabilitation programme. It was fantastic to see him back out on the pitch completing some running work under Dillon’s watchful eye this week, marking another positive step towards his return to full training.

Josh Taylor | ACL | Expected return to play – October

Josh also returned to the training pitch this week and has begun the final phase of his rehabilitation, alongside the early stages of our return to training protocols. The focus is now on ensuring Josh is fully conditioned and ready for the demands of training before he is gradually reintegrated into the main group.

Jimmy Muitt | Knee | Expected return to play – Mid to Late September

Jimmy continues to make steady progress with his recovery. We will gradually increase his workload over the coming weeks, with a return to training currently targeted within the next two to three weeks.

Dan Gallagher | Back | Expected return to training – September

Dan is beginning to step up the final stages of his rehabilitation programme. His workload will continue to increase as he works towards a return to training in the coming weeks.

Isaac Philpot | Ankle | Expected return to training – ASAP

Following further assessment, Isaac Philpot’s ankle injury is not as serious as initially feared. We are working closely with Isaac to support his recovery and aim to have him back in training and available for selection as soon as possible.
