Jordan Rossiter could make his first appearance in a Bristol Rovers shirt this weekend against Swansea City after an injury-hit start to pre-season for the midfielder.
Rossiter joined the Gas from Fleetwood Town for an undisclosed fee last month, but a calf niggle in the first week of training has delayed his preparation for the new campaign, but his boss Joey Barton is hopeful Rossiter will play some part on Saturday.
The Gas face Championship side Swansea in a behind-closed-doors game at their training ground, in what will be Rovers' penultimate friendly before the League One campaign begins with the visit of Forest Green Rovers to the Mem on July 30.
