NEWPORT County AFC loan star Shawn McCoulsky is set to miss Saturday’s home clash with Stevenage after complaining of chest pains this week.
The Bristol City striker, joint top scorer for County with 11 goals in 35 appearances, has been diagnosed with pericarditis – inflammation of the fibrous sac surrounding the heart known as the pericardium.
Manager Michael Flynn said: “Shawn McCoulsky is out.
He’s had chest pains and he’s been checked out by the hospital. It’s something called pericarditis.
“The doctor spoke to Bristol City yesterday and I’d obviously never risk a players’ health.”
