Connor Goldson has suffered a hammer injury blow after Michael Beale revealed he will sidelined for at least TEN weeks.
Beale said the Light Blues vice captain was a doubt for the trip to Easter Road and Leon King has been handed a start with John Souttar alongside him. And Beale has now told how the former Brighton & Hove Albion stopper is facing more than two months out with a foot injury.
Going by Beale’s schedule, Goldson wouldn’t return until July 31 and that rules the 30-year-old out for pretty much the entire pre-season. And the Champions League third round qualifying first leg takes place jut a week later on August 8 and 9. Depending on how his recovery goes, Goldson could be a doubt for a game of such huge magnitude.
