Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has provided an injury update on Cheikhou Kouyate after failing to complete the 1-0 victory against Newcastle United in Saturday’s Premier League game.
The versatile player was replaced by Jairo Riedewald moments before the end of the game after suffering a knock to his ankles.
Hodgson confirmed from Kouyate the injury was not serious and he could be available for selection in their next league game against Brighton & Hove Albion on February 29.
“He took a nasty knock on the ankle towards the end of the game, but I asked him about it and he led me to believe that it wasn’t too serious," Hodgson said, per Football London.
