A group of Dons are tracking well in their recoveries from injury.

Key defender Jordan Ridley is progressing well through his rehab program and is now four weeks away from returning from his hamstring injury. Similarly, forward Kyle Langford is on track to be available after the mid-season bye.

Zach Reid and Saad El-Hawli are also aiming for returns in 4-5 weeks' time from respective soft tissue injuries.

A timeframe for Ben McKay’s return will become clearer once he recommences running, with the key defender currently off legs as he rehabs a plantar plate rupture in his foot.

Harry Jones remains in rehab whilst he builds his ankle’s tolerance to impact loading, with his return to play timeline yet to be defined.
