Timm Klose is a doubt for Bristol City’s Championship encounter against Huddersfield Town on Wednesday with the veteran Swiss defender nursing a knee injury that will be assessed in the build-up to the game.
Klose was absent from the City squad for the first time in the Championship this season at Blackpool on Saturday, as although the 33-year-old has found himself fourth-choice in Pearson’s three-man defence has provided valuable cover from the bench.
The former Norwich City defender didn’t train on Monday with the first-team squad but Pearson admits he and, to an extent, the medical staff will lean on the centre-back’s knowledge of his own body before making a decision on his matchday 18 for the visit of the Terriers.
