Kieron Bowie Hibs injury nightmare as striker faces FOUR months out
Hibs have confirmed that Kieron Bowie faces at least FOUR months out.
The striker pulled up with a hamstring issue during Scotland Under-21s' 5-0 win over Malta and was forced off at the interval. The summer signing from Fulham underwent a medical examination and results show that he has suffered a serious injury that will keep him out of action for the remainder of 2024.
Devastated Easter Road boss David Gray said: "First of all, I am gutted for Kieron. I know how hard he worked to come back from his previous injury and how desperate he’s been to impress after joining us, which is something he’s certainly done.

"Given his injury history we were conscious of managing his minutes at the start of the season, despite the temptation to play him more because of the positive start he made. With that in mind, it makes it even more frustrating that he has picked up a significant injury during this period.
"Now it’s up to us to rally around him, support him with his recovery and make sure he has everything he needs to come back stronger, which I’m sure he will."
