Ohashi out for several weeks with hamstring injury
Blackburn's Yuki Ohashi is likely to be sidelined for several weeks with a hamstring injury picked up in the Carabao Cup loss to Sheffield United on Tuesday.
Blackburn Rovers forward Yuki Ohashi is expected to miss several weeks of action due to a hamstring injury sustained during their recent Carabao Cup match against Sheffield United. The Japanese international was substituted after just 11 minutes of the match. Manager Tony Mowbray expressed his disappointment, stating that losing such a key player who rarely gets injured is a significant blow.
Ohashi's absence will likely be at least a few weeks, and Mowbray is optimistic about his recovery. Left-back Harry Pickering, who also left the field at halftime, is expected to return for the upcoming Championship game against QPR. Midfielder Adam Forshaw, who missed the cup game, is set to return to the squad. Jake Garrett is also considered fit.
Defender Scott Wharton, who has faced injury struggles in the past, will not be rushed back into the squad and may need additional time to regain confidence in his body.
