Richard Kone injury update after QPR star forced off against Burnley

Kone expected to be available for Lincoln this weekend after injury scare forced him off against Burnley; came through unscathed.

Richard Kone was substituted just before the hour mark during QPR's 1-1 draw with Burnley at Loftus Road on Tuesday after moving awkwardly. The 23-year-old striker walked straight down the tunnel, prompting injury concerns. However, Standard Sport understands Kone came through the game unscathed and is set to be available for selection against Lincoln on Saturday.

Kone has been in superb form this season, scoring four goals in his last three games since returning from a previous injury sustained in a development game against Bolton's Under-21s. He remains QPR's top goalscorer despite an off-pace performance in the draw with Burnley.
