Rob Lainton will likely spend more time on the sidelines, according to Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson.
This season, Wrexham has played without a goalie. He had a knee ailment and is now healing.
Lainton, 33, has been included on the Racecourse Ground’s roster since last year. The goalkeeper has so far played 145 times for the Welsh team.
According to the Evening Leader, Parkinson has issued the following update on his situation: Rob’s knee is still not healing as quickly as we would have hoped. He is currently not where he needs to be. Rob is having a rough time, but maybe he will return to the practice field soon.
Blow for Wrexham
Lainton has recently had bad luck with injuries, but Wrexham has stood by him. The goalie will be keen to return to full health as soon as possible in an effort to reclaim the number one position.
Mark Howard, Arthur Okonkwo, and Luke McNicholas are the Red Dragons’ current options between the sticks. Since the end of the previous season, both Ben Foster and Rory Watson have left the team.
