Gavin Cowan throws down challenge to Bradley Ihionvien as Shrewsbury Town striker returns from injury
Gavin Cowan hopes Bradley Ihionvien’s return from injury will provide a major boost for Shrewsbury Town.
Ihionvien made his first appearance since recovering from a knee injury as a second-half substitute last Saturday, as Salop extended their scoreless run to three games.
The striker had been sidelined for months after undergoing surgery on a meniscus injury sustained in training in October. That setback came after he scored in successive games following his loan move from Peterborough United.
Asked whether his return is a big boost, Salop boss Cowan said: "Yes, if he sticks to what it is we do within our process.
"He's a very talented, very capable player. So, yes, looking forward to seeing what he can offer."
