37 injuries Portsmouth have suffered over past 13 months - and those that have impacted their Championship return so far

It’s fair to say, Pompey have had their fair share of injury concerns over the past 12 months or so.

From Kusini Yengi damaging ligaments in his ankle after Christian Saydee fell on him, to Joe Rafferty straining his neck while drying his hair after training, the Blues have had a rotten run of luck when it comes to players’ availability.

And just when it seemed the current injury situation had turned a corner following the returns of Josh Murphy, Regan Poole and Tom McIntyre to first-team action in recent weeks, Pompey suffered another blow after it emerged that top-scorer Callum Lang was now out after suffering a groin problem in last Saturday’s defeat to Burnley.

At this rate, head coach John Mousinho must be wondering when he’ll catch a break and if he will ever approach the current Championship campaign with a clean bill of health. Indeed, heading into Saturday’s game with Sheffield United, there’s also doubts over the fitness of Conor Shaughnessy, Jacob Farrell, Kusini Yengi and Mark O’Mahony. Colby Bishop’s recent heart surgery, unfortunately, makes him an automatic non-starter!

Since the start of last season, we can reveal that the Blues have had 37 injuries that have ruled players out of games - 25 of which have come during matches, 11 during training and one in the pre-match warm-up (Yengi v West Brom).

Here’s those injuries in full as Pompey continue to strive for a clean bill of health!
