Gomis poised for Dee recall

-

KEVIN Gomis looks likely to return at the heart of D u n d e e ’s d e f e n c e in tomorrow’s home game against Ross County.

“Gomis is back and is going to be OK for tomorrow,” said boss Paul Hartley.

The big Frenchman missed l ast weekend’s defeat to Killie after flying home to be at the birth of his child.

His absence coincided with a poor performanc­e at Rugby Park and Paul Hartley may revert to the starting line-up which has won the last two games at Dens Park.

There was encouragin­g news for Mark O’Hara, who has been out of action since October.

The combative midfielder has been given the green light to return to some light training.

“O’Hara did a bit of light training with us yesterday,” added Paul.

“He had a little setback with his groin and probably needs another 10 days or so.”

Having seen a specialist last week, the manager stated there should be no more concern over t he injury.

“It’s j ust t he normal things with a hernia. He is fine running but gets a little pain with kicking,” said Paul.

“He is feeling much better and, hopefully, he is OK.”

James Vincent, who was withdrawn before half-time, has trained this week and seem to be over his illness.

The Dee boss continued: “Vince trained after being ill last week. He picked up a bug and didn’t feel great before the game.

“He wanted to give it a go but he had no energy.”

Nick Low also put himself in contention to be involved after playing for the Developmen­t Squad on Wednesday.

He came t hrough t he game without picking up any injury, so should make the bench.
