CoventryLive provides Coventry City injury news. Fabio Tavares, Victor Torp, Joel Latibeaudiere, and Luis Binks all have nursing issues that may need them to miss the rest of the season.
Due to Coventry City’s demanding match calendar, Mark Robins thinks that he may be without up to four senior players for the duration of the season.
Significant injuries sustained by Fabio Tavares and Victor Torp during Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final at Wembley prevented them from playing in Wednesday night’s 3-2 loss at home against Hull, where Luis Binks hobbled off due to an Achilles injury and Joel Latibeaudiere aggravated a calf issue he has been managing.
The Sky Blues boss stated that Tavares is the main cause for concern, saying, “Fabio has got to go for a surgical opinion on his ankle.” Due to ligament injury, we must determine if surgery is necessary for him. I believe that’s being completed.
He went on, “Binksy felt that he had to go off during the game because he had a tight Achilles at halftime. I’m not sure how serious that is yet. Joel Latibeaudiere has been dealing with a calf issue for some time now, but today it has somewhat caught up with him.
When asked whether it means they won’t be able to play in the final three league games of the season, which are against Blackburn and Ipswich and QPR at home, he replied, “I don’t know, there’s not long left but potentially yes.” Without a doubt, Fabio, and possibly Joel and Binksy. I’m not positive yet, but I wouldn’t be shocked if he missed the remainder of the campaign. I do not know his whereabouts.
Robins said, “Yes, it’s unfortunate, but Fabio hasn’t done anything wrong.” He has actually been a huge help to us in that wide position, but he has also scored goals, participated in play, and given us a renewed sense of belonging when he has played in the middle. It’s unfortunate, but we’ll take care of him and work to ensure his speedy recovery, whether or not it involves surgery. But before he can play again, he will need to sit out a while.
When asked if his strong recent performance will motivate him to start strong the following season, the manager replied, “There’s no other option.” He needs to keep working out and staying in shape if he wants to be a player.
