On-loan Barnsley striker Maceo Rigters is hoping to return to action in next month's derby clash with Doncaster.

The Blackburn forward has made three appearances and only one start after moving to Oakwell in August because of a troublesome hamstring strain.

The 23-year-old Dutchman, who first sustained the injury last season, hopes to return to full training in 10 days with a view to a return to action against Rover at Oakwell on 4th October.

Meanwhile, striker Michael Coulson is not expected to return to full training until Christmas following surgery to repair knee ligament damage.
