McCann Fitness Update

Grant McCann has provided a fitness update ahead of the Tigers’ League One match against Shrewsbury Town.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, the boss confirmed that Tom Eaves, who was withdrawn against Crewe in the Papa John’s Trophy through illness, had a Covid-19 test yesterday. The result has since come back negative.

Martin Samuelsen is set to have another scan on the calf injury that saw him pull up in the warm-up.

McCann explained: “Martin has had a scan but nothing is too clear on the scan so the physios want to rescan Martin’s calf to get to the bottom of it.
