Boost for QPR as Doyle injury concerns ease

Kevin Doyle appears to be facing only a brief spell on the sidelines with a knee injury he picked up at Birmingham.

The Republic of Ireland striker, signed on loan from Wolves in January, hobbled off in the final minutes of QPR’s 2-0 victory at St Andrews on Saturday.

He will miss Tuesday’s match at Brighton and is touch-and-go for this weekend’s home game against Yeovil.

But news he is unlikely to be out for longer is a boost for Rangers given that they are already without injured top scorer Charlie Austin and are trying to make up ground in the race for automatic promotion.

On-loan Manchester United youngster Will Keane is set to replace Doyle in the starting line-up at Brighton.
