George Cox will miss Swindon Town's trip to Gillingham this weekend through injury.

Cox rolled his ankle during the defeat by Bromley on Monday (April 21) and will not travel to Kent with the rest of the Robins' squad on Friday (April 25) ahead of the clash at Priestfield on Saturday (April 26).

The full-back has struggled with problems with both feet throughout 2025 so far.

He was first misdiagnosed with a fractured bone - the medial cuneiform - and then sustained considerable bruising in a challenge during the game against Notts County in early January.
