Fan's favourite Matt Jansen has sustained a knee cartilage injury which could require surgery, but the club are hoping that this can be avoided.

Rovers club doctor Phil Batty told the Lancashire Evening Telegraph: "Matt has got a slight tear in his cartilage and he's currently undergoing rehabilitation that should hopefully resolve it.

"We feel that should be enough to resolve the matter until the end of the season but you can never be certain in these situations.

"Ultimately, the person who'll decide whether an operation is needed or not will be Matt himself. It's down to how he feels it's affecting him, but as things stand it's not a bad tear."
