Cardiff City manager Brian Barry-Murphy has insisted that goalkeeper Nathan Trott is not a serious injury concern, despite sitting out the club's opening two pre-season friendlies.
The 27-year-old Bermudian shot-stopper, who completed a permanent move to the Bluebirds this summer following a successful promotion campaign, is currently nursing a minor groin issue.
Trott watched from the sidelines as a strong Cardiff City side cruised to a dominant 6-1 victory over Cork City in their latest warm-up fixture.
Despite missing the opening fixtures of the summer schedule, the club's medical staff are treating the goalkeeper's omission as a precautionary measure to ensure he is fully fit for the upcoming Championship campaign.
Barry-Murphy downplayed any long-term worries regarding his first-choice keeper, indicating that Trott is expected to integrate back into first-team training in the near future as preparations intensify for the new season.
