‘Significant’ injury blow tooventry City before Huddersfield Town test
injury update via CoventryLive as Sky Blues manager Mark Robins receives another unfavourable reports from the Ryton medical staff
When it was revealed that Milan van Ewijk had torn a “significant” muscle, it dealt Coventry City another blow. The superb Sky Blues wing-back hobbled off the pitch in the 53rd minute of Tuesday night’s match in Cardiff after complaining of thigh pain. The initial diagnosis is a quad rupture.
The degree of the damage will be determined by the thorough scan results, which will also offer manager Mark Robins an idea of how long the Dutch player would likely be out of action. The summer signing has been one of the standout players among the newcomers thus far this season, so the injury is a huge setback for the team.
It happens just days after Robins declared important midfielder Ben Sheaf will be out for at least six weeks. Before the CBS Arena encounter against Huddersfield Town on Monday night, Robins responded to a question concerning Van Ewijk’s condition by saying: “It’s not good, not good! His quad has a large tear, so I’m not sure how long he will last.

Although he isn’t exhibiting many symptoms, the scan indicates a major tear. Therefore, we are only awaiting the radiologist’s interpretation of that, and we will receive the report sometime this morning (Fri), but it doesn’t look good.
