Emil Hansson of Birmingham City<\/p>\nThe latest Birmingham City injury news as Chris Davies’ side prepare to play Stevenage in their next League One fixtureEmil Hansson of Birmingham City<\/p>\n
Birmingham City look set to be without five players at Stevenage on Thursday unless Krystian Bielik<\/a> or Emil Hansson return ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n Bielik and Hansson are Blues’ only short-term injuries at present and Chris Davies’ most recent update puts them in the ‘doubts’ category for this match at the very least.<\/p>\n Hansson is due to train this week after just over three weeks out with another injury, while Bielik’s issue is being managed by the club’s medical department.<\/p>\n Here is the latest on the injury front before Blues travel to Stevenage…<\/p>\n Krystian Bielik<\/p>\n Injury<\/strong>: Unspecified<\/p>\n The defender <\/a>returned from injury to start at Peterborough two weeks ago but he hasn’t featured in Blues’ last three matches. Davies says Bielik has a chance of playing again this season.<\/p>\n \u201cBielik has a chance before the end of the season to get back for a few of the games, it\u2019s just a little knock that we can\u2019t quite get going with,” Davies said (April 17).<\/p>\n Emil Hansson<\/p>\n Injury:<\/strong> Unspecified<\/p>\n Hansson has now had three injuries in his first season at Blues. The first two kept him out for two months apiece, but Davies insists the Swede’s season isn’t over.<\/p>\n The Swede is due to train this week with his teammates but whether or not he will feature in either game against Stevenage or Mansfield is another matter.<\/p>\n Lyndon Dykes<\/p>\n Injury:<\/strong> Calf<\/p>\n Dykes pulled up on the run during Blues’ 0-0 draw with Reading on February 22 and hobbled off the field. The Scotland international appeared to be in a lot of discomfort and might not play again this season.<\/p>\n The striker has recently ditched his protective boot and seems to be making progress.<\/p>\n Scott Wright<\/p>\n Injury:<\/strong> Knee<\/p>\n Wright has undergone surgery on the knee injury he sustained at Reading and Davies has ruled him out until the latter part of 2025.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s had his surgery and his early rehab has gone well,\u201d said Davies. \u201cI don\u2019t know a definitive timeframe, I know he\u2019s had that knee done before as well so I think that extends it slightly.<\/p>\n \u201cThese days it\u2019s six or seven months but I think it will be a bit longer because of the background to that knee. It\u2019s going to be right towards the end of the year I would say.\u201d<\/p>\n Lee Buchanan<\/p>\n Injury:<\/strong> Knee<\/p>\n Buchanan suffered a serious knee injury during the draw with Blackpool and will miss the remainder of the season. Davies said: \u201cLee\u2019s injury is quite severe as everyone would have guessed. He will be out for a considerable amount of time, as you probably saw from the pictures, and he won\u2019t be with us for this season absolutely.\u201d<\/p>\n The left-back is back on his feet at Blues’ training ground and in the early stages of his rehab.<\/p>\n Get the latest Blues headlines sent straight to your phone<\/p>\n BirminghamLive has its very own Birmingham City<\/a> WhatsApp community to deliver the latest headlines straight to your phone.
