Alebiosu out for ‘three to four months’ – Mowbray
Blackburn boss Tony Mowbray has confirmed right-back Ryan Alebiosu will be out for “three to four months” with injury after his side’s 2-1 victory over West Ham United on Saturday.
Alebiosu, who has started 14 of Blackburn’s 15 Championship fixtures this season, picked up a knee injury during Rovers’ defeat by Stoke City last week and had to be replaced in the first-half.
“He [Alebiosu] had a scan on Wednesday and it’s not good news for us or for him,” Mowbray told BBC Radio Lancashire.
“He looks like he’s going to have an operation. Three or four months, maybe a touch longer.
“He’s devastated. Apparently he wrote on his social medias. It’s a tough break for the football team because he does bring us an amazing ability to cover ground and join the attack really fast.
“He’s going to have to be really disciplined and do the hard yards until he gets himself back in the new year.”
