Ryan Hedges: Blackburn Rovers winger sidelined by injury

Blackburn Rovers winger Ryan Hedges is expected to be out for “a couple of weeks” after picking up an injury during the 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town on Tuesday.

The injury blow comes after attacking midfielder Todd Cantwell made his comeback from a knee problem that ruled him out for nine league games to play 19 minutes against the Tractor Boys.

“It’s not a big injury [for Hedges], but it will take him out for a couple of weeks,” boss Valerien Ismael told BBC Radio Lancashire.

“It’s always the story [players picking up injuries], so now we are used to doing that.

“We find the way back, the players show resilience not to be affected by a missing player. Really important to us that we keep the performance always high.”

Blackburn will face bottom side Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
