Nigel Pearson shares update on Kal Naismith injury after being forced off in Bristol City win

Nigel Pearson has eased concerns over Kal Naismith's calf injury by suggesting it's not as serious in comparison to the one he suffered earlier in the season.

The 30-year-old was replaced by Joe Williams after 30 minutes in the 2-1 victory over Preston although didn't appear in major discomfort as he made his way off the pitch. Naismith went straight to the dugout instead of heading down the tunnel to receive treatment.

Pearson confirmed it was a calf issue after the game but said they would need two days to assess the severity of it before determining whether he would be forced to miss any matches.
