Peterborough United captain suffers injury setback
Peterborough United club captain Sam Hughes has suffered a setback in his return from injury.
The Posh centre-back has not featured this season after picking up an achilles injury in pre-season.
Previous boss Darren Ferguson had said that he expected the summer signing from Stockport to be back in contention at the beginning on November but Luke Williams has now revealed that he is unsure when he will return after suffering a setback.
Asked after Saturday’s defeat at Doncaster, Williams said: “He’s had a bit of a setback. We needs a procedure and hopefully he makes a quick recovery from that and we can get him back on the training pitch.
“I couldn’t say for sure how long it will be out because I don’t know how he will respond to the small surgery.”
Posh were also without Abraham Odoh on Saturday, He was absent from the squad due to a personal issue.
Williams said: “He had some personal issues. We felt it was not right to play him as he couldn’t make training and we’re not sure how much sleep he’s had and how much he has travelled.”
