Josh Grant's season appears to be over after the Bristol Rovers utility player underwent knee surgery on Thursday. The 23-year-old has been plagued by injuries throughout his time at the Mem and he faces a long spell another on the sidelines.
Grant, who can play across defence and midfield, has made just a single substitute appearance this season due to a niggling knee issues stemming from his patellar tendons. After having surgery this morning, he is set to have another operation in the coming weeks on the other knee.
Rovers are hopeful this is the answer to Grant's injury woes, and manager Joey Barton insists they will support him through his recovery.
