But he was able to report for full training on Monday and will be monitored ahead of Tuesday night’s clash with Plymouth Argyle.

"He looked okay. We feel that he’s back.

"We’ll just make sure there’s no reactions on Tuesday and if that’s the case then he’ll be back in the squad.”

Rovers will be without Taylor Richards for the trip to Plymouth with the Brighton and Hove Albion loanee still struggling with a nagging injury.

"Taylor Richards is still nursing his niggle and we think that might take a bit longer,” Moore said.

“We’re just going day by day with him.

"He’s still nursing the niggle that we’re not going to take any chances with.”
