According to sources, Blackburn Rovers defender Ryan Alebiosu may have to miss some time due to a hamstring issue.

Alebiosu suffered the injury during Blackburn Rovers’ defeat to Hull City on Saturday.
The Nigerian international was replaced at halftime.
It’s the latest blow for the right-back, who suffered a leg injury while playing for Nigeria in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations last month.
Valerin Ismael, Rovers’ head coach, is confident he will not be sidelined for an extended period.
“He (Alebiosu) has a hamstring issue, so we need to analyse him. “Hopefully he isn’t too bad,” Ismael remarked.
