Barnet plan January moves after 'killer' injury

Tshimanga sidelined for three months with knee injury; Barnet plan January signings to cover.

Barnet boss Dean Brennan has confirmed striker Kabongo Tshimanga will miss approximately three months with a knee injury. Tshimanga, 29, is League Two's leading scorer with 10 goals in 13 appearances. Brennan described the absence as "an absolute killer" for the club, noting the impact was evident in Saturday's FA Cup win over Tranmere Rovers, where Barnet struggled in front of goal and lacked clinical finishing.

In response, Brennan confirmed the club is already planning January transfer activity to bring in reinforcements to cover for Tshimanga's absence.
