Lincoln City forward Bailey Cadamarteri is expected to miss the remainder of the season because of a groin injury.

The on-loan 19-year-old will return to parent club Sheffield Wednesday for further assessment, but Imps boss Michael Skubala says his "season is probably done".

Cadamarteri has scored five goals in 23 League One appearances for Lincoln in an injury-interrupted season.

A 10-minute appearance off the bench in a 4-1 win against Crawley earlier in March is all he has managed since he was first sidelined with a groin issue in mid-January.

"When he had his groin injury before we knew there is a high recurrence rate with that," Skubala told BBC Radio Lincolnshire.

"He obviously came back for a little bit but he has felt it again, so we think that could be pretty bad news for him."

Skubala said the latest injury setback is a "big shame" for a teenager that was "really starting to get going".

"We saw some good moments from him before he got injured and then unfortunately he has got injured [again] and that will be it for the season," the Imps boss added.
