Four members of Carlos Corberán’s senior team have been given an update on their fitness ahead of Saturday’s Sky Bet Championship matchup against Cardiff City (ko 3pm).

The manager disclosed that defender Kyle Bartley, who was the No. 5 in Wednesday’s goalless draw against Blackburn Rovers, will miss the match at The Hawthorns due to a knee injury.

Lewis Dobbin, the on-loan winger, was a doubt for the match against the Bluebirds after suffering a hip injury after entering the game in the second half at Ewood Park, according to Corberán.

Mason Holgate, a Jamaican international, may rejoin the matchday squad after missing recent tests against Oxford United and Blackburn.

Daryl Dike, a striker, suffered a little “setback” after hurting his hamstring during practice.

Although the Spaniard acknowledges that the American will be irritated, he maintains that muscle strains are typical at this point in a player’s recovery after a protracted absence.

According to Carlos, Kyle Bartley has been seeing a doctor who has been evaluating his knee and determining the most effective method of reducing inflammation. He has had therapy for the same knee in the past.

We keep a close eye on things and control the physical strain on him. We are currently awaiting further details, but he will not be able to play against Cardiff City.

“We must assess the best course of action and the amount of time it will take to be effective.

Lewis Dobbin experienced minor hip pain, which affected his availability among the players that participated in the most recent game. Although we are awaiting his performance, he is doubtful for the game.

This week, Daryl Dike experienced a minor hamstring ache during training. Although this is a minor setback, it is a necessary step in the process. As he returned to exercise with the group, we know that muscle issues could surface during this final phase of his recovery.

Not only is it not surprising to us, but it is also not good for him because he had a tough experience in the past and is now going through another one.

“I think it’s a typical step in this process, but it’s a minor setback that we need to handle effectively. When you attempt to prepare your body for action after a prolonged period of time, you will have

Our next games and my plans with Daryl haven’t been impacted, but it’s crucial to handle things cautiously since we don’t want something little to become significant.

Mason Holgate trained on Thursday, and he might play on Saturday provided he responds favourably to the training on Friday.
