Lincoln City’s midfielder, Jack Moylan, is forecasted to be out of the game for a period of up to three months following ankle surgery. This unfortunate development ensues from an injury Moylan sustained during the 3-1 win against Harrogate Town in the EFL Cup on 12 August. The reassuring note from the club clarifies this injury is not connected to the one Moylan struggled with in the previous season, where he was absent from January to April.
Since his transition to Lincoln City from Shelbourne in the League of Ireland Premier Division in January 2024, Moylan has proved himself as a key player. He has contributed hugely to the team, making 57 appearances and scoring 10 goals. Michael Skubala, the Lincoln City manager, retains a positive outlook, stating, “It’s a similar injury to the one he had last season but he’s already on the mend and back in the building on crutches.”
As of now, the team is preparing itself for the impending EFL Cup second-round match against Burton Albion, scheduled for Tuesday evening.
