Leeds United loanee Tyler Roberts has revealed that he is set for an extended period on the sidelines as he shared "incredibly frustrating and upsetting" injury news.
Roberts' bad luck with injury has once again continued. The Wales international, who temporarily swapped Elland Road for Loftus Road this season, has had more than his fair share of time on the treatment table.
A calf injury ruled him out of a place in Wales' World Cup squad earlier this campaign and a subsequent issue in January has kept the Leeds man out of QPR's matchday squad for months.

Having been tipped for a return to action in February, yet more bad news has now emerged for Roberts as he took to social media to share the latest update on what is another setback on his road to recovery.
"So last week I received news that my injury was not as close to healing as first expected," he wrote on his Instagram story. "This was incredibly frustrating and upsetting as I worked so hard to come back and be the best version of myself to help the team, but now with this setback the time being on the sidelines has increased.
"As a footballer this is the most low and depressing time you can have. I will continue to walk by faith and work just as hard to hopefully be back out there soon.
"It's clear that we have been through a rough time recently but I have confidence knowing that the lads are working hard on the training pitch to change this around and they will.
"Thank you to all the @officialqpr fans for your continued support and patience, it doesn't go unnoticed."
