Tony Mowbray has revealed that Darragh Lenihan is edging closer to a return to first team training, although this weekend's trip to Rotherham United will come too soon for the defender.
The Republic of Ireland hasn't played since limping off in the second half against Brentford at the start of this month.
And when discussing his team selection for this weekend's game against the Millers, Mowbray says he expects to see the 24-year-old back on the training pitch by mid-March.
“Derrick [Williams]’s suspended, of course, whilst Darragh is still injured, alongside [Ben] Gladwin and [Dominic] Samuel," the boss revealed during his pre-match press conference.
