Ipswich Town: Injury updates on Omari Hutchinson and Kalvin Phillips
Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna said Omari Hutchinson had incurred ‘severe injury’ on his leg in last night’s 3-2 defeat to Manchester United.
Patrick Dorgu clattered the youthful attacker shin-high late in the first half, and subsequently saw red after a VAR review.
Hutchinson managed to continue on, but was subbed just after the hour mark.
“I’ve not heard from the medical team in terms of anything, but we’ll have to assess it,” McKenna said after the contest.
“It’s obviously heavy damage on his shin, but he managed to play on for a bit, so you’d hope there’s nothing serious, serious, serious there, it’s just the heavy impact that he received.”
Manchester City loanee Kalvin Phillips missed the encounter with a calf injury, with the Blues manager conceding he may not be available for a couple of games.
He said: “Obviously his injury from the other day that meant he wasn’t available.
“Again, to be honest, we’re not sure on timescales. Not a very lengthy injury, but we’re not sure over the next game or two whether he’ll be available.”
