Loan Watch: Golbourne out for the season
Sunday, January 14th 2018
Scott Golbourne requires hip surgery and will miss the remainder of the 2017/18 campaign.
The City defender has made 21 appearances for MK Dons on loan this season, with his temporary spell due to expire in the coming days.
However, Dons boss Robbie Neilson revealed after his side’s goalless draw with derby rivals AFC Wimbledon that Golbourne is set to go under the knife.
Golbourne is thought to miss up to three months of action, meaning his campaign is all but over already.
SMITH ON TARGET
