Fresh injury woes have reached the Club as Lasse Fredriksen picks up an injury racing in Sweden.

Lasse confirmed this morning that he has suffered a fractured wrist after a crash whilst racing for Valsarna on Thursday evening.

Further scans will take place within a fortnight to check if surgery is required, however Lasse currently targets a return before the end of the season.

Lasse said, "I have fractured the radial bone on my left arm at the wrist. It's the same arm as last year but not the same bone. I will know more in 10-14 days whether I need surgery or not.

"I will come to Armadale next Friday with my family to cheer the team on, just go get that win in Berwick on Saturday!"

Meanwhile, Club bosses are scouring the country for a replacement in time for Stellar Monarchs' next match away to Berwick on Saturday evening.
