Nigerian striker, Sone Aluko, is doubtful for Hull City’s clash against Fulham this weekend at the Craven Cottage.
Hull City boss, Steve Bruce, hinted: “Sone Aluko unfortunately nicked a hamstring. It’s unfortunate because we were just seeing Sone again.
“It’s getting a bit too often with Sone, we get him up to speed and unfortunately he breaks down again and that’s a disappointment.”
Also on the doctors’ list is Shane Long, who was withdrawn at half time in the Tigers’ 3-0 defeat to Arsenal on Sunday while Aluko missed the game entirely.
And now both players are unlikely to feature against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday.
Bruce told reporters: “Long’s got a calf injury. We’ll see how he is but he’s got a whack to the back of his calf. He’ll be touch and go for the weekend, I would have thought.”
Hull are 14th in the Premier League, six points clear of the relegation zone.
