Neil Warnock reveals when star striker Kenneth Zohore will be back for Cardiff City

[James fox]

Neil Warnock claims Kenneth Zohore is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel after finally getting to the bottom of his injury problem, admitting his return to could be key to Cardiff City’s bid to be even better.

But Warnock is still prepared to wait until the start of 2018 before unleashing the Danish star back into the Championship promotion race.

Zohore has missed almost two months of action after an ankle problem was compounded by the discovery of problems from a previous injury that eventually saw the 23-year-old undergo surgery.

An initial ligament problem was diagnosed as to be cured by rest, only for Zohore to complain of further pain and leave Warnock doubting his desire to return.

But after specialists discovered old scar tissue and advised for the frontman to go under the knife, Warnock reckons Zohore is now well on his way to recovery.

“He was in so much pain and we talked about him running it off, going through the pain because it was scar tissue,” said Warnock, speaking ahead of Monday’s trip to Reading. “But he was adamant how painful it was and we might have doubted it – I might have doubted it as well.

“But when the surgeon went in it was one of the worst he’d ever seen, he had never seen so much scar tissue in one area, so the pain was legitimate.

“We’ve got to the bottom of it now and sorted it and you can see the relief on his face because he knows he just has to get himself fit.

Must be frustrating to be told to run it off. He was in Warnock s book for wearing gloves when it weren't cold. He is toughening him up and driving him on. It's paid off so far. Good to get to the bottom of it. Come on ken boy.
