Brentford defender Aaron Hickey is set to miss the majority of the 2024-25 season with a hamstring injury.

The 22-year-old suffered a setback during a training session last week and has undergone surgery.

Bees' head physio Nick Stubbings said: "The procedure involved the removal of the previous repair sutures and making a new tendon repair.

"Now we aim to start afresh and help Aaron return to his previous level of health and performance."

The Scotland international hasn't featured for Thomas Frank's side since October 2023 in a Premier League match against Chelsea.
