“I don’t know about a recurrence but it’s the same ankle, so the chances are it’s probably linked,” McKenna said afterwards.

“That’s a big blow, there’s no doubt about it.

"We really, really enjoyed having him back in training this week, he gives us a different dynamic, a different maturity, a different age profile, a different type of player, so we’ll keep our fingers crossed, but that’s the big downside from today.”
