SAINTS youngster Jake Vokins has told Ross County manager Malky Mackay that he is “100 per cent” ready to return after his broken metatarsal injury. He finally made a return to the matchday squad for the recent trip to Rangers, but now the international break has come to afford him another week or two recovery.
Jake Vokins said: “I played against Brora, and I played against Montrose at home, so that was good. Obviously the fans were back a little bit there too, so playing games was nice. I was really looking forward to the start of the league campaign. Rangers was my first time back in the squad, so I’ve been working hard in training and trying to catch the gaffer’s eye. Being part of the squad and being around him was good, I enjoyed it. It definitely feels good to be back in and around the team and back into training now. I definitely missed being around the boys, but in terms of my recovery and rehab there were a little bit better facilities down in Southampton. We thought that would aid my recovery to come back here fitter and stronger, but it was definitely tough. It’s always bad getting injured, but especially right before the start of the league season – I was raring to go and looking forward to playing. Everything happens for a reason, and it was disappointing, but I’m back now and I’m raring to go. I’ve been watching every game, seeing how the boys are doing and adapting to how Ross County play. Now I have a couple more weeks of training, so I can work on fitness before going again. Even when I was back at Southampton I was doing fitness work, so I would say I’m at 100 per cent.”
Ross County return to Scottish Premiership action on Wednesday, November 24, with a visit Hibernian. They then host Dundee United, before visits to St Mirren and St Johnstone all coming within 10 days – so he will likely be needed by Mackay.
