| Canero was expected to be out for anything up to six weeks when it emerged earlier this month that he required knee surgery, but, less than two weeks after the op., he has started running again.
Boss Gordon Chisholm is adopting a cautious line and there is no chance of the ex-Kilmarnock and Leicester City man facing Hibs on Saturday. He might, though, make the trip to Livingston a week later.
“It’s remarkable how quickly he is coming on — he has been running OK and there is no swelling on the knee. We won’t push him, but there has to be a chance he will make the Livi game,” said Gordon today.
There is also still a chance that midfielder Grant Brebner will make the squad to face his former club this weekend.
The ex-Hibee was jogging again today and, if he proves he is over the calf strain that has dogged him for most of the month, he may make the bench.
