The 18-goal striker is still recovering from a hamstring injury that he suffered in the 2-1 defeat to Bristol Rovers.

The knock kept the Frenchman out of Saturday's trip to Kingsmeadow, where the Seasiders were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw against AFC Wimbledon.

With Gary Madine playing with a slight knee issue, that leaves Pool light in attacking options.

In more positive news, Pool have no fresh injury doubts from the weekend according to caretaker boss David Dunn.

“Everyone is fine (that played at the weekend)," he revealed.

“Everyone we expect to be involved will be involved, so there will be no real changes from the weekend.

“We’re just getting some more feedback on the ones that are injured.

“It’s touch and go. It’s possible (they’ll be back) but it’s looking unlikely.”

Elsewhere, Ben Heneghan will serve the second match of his three-game suspension for the straight red he was shown in the defeat at Bristol Rovers.

The Seasiders will also be without injured pair Jak Alnwick (arm) and Sullay Kaikai (groin/abductor), who are long-term absentees.

On Alnwick's recovery, Dunn added: “He’s getting there, but he’s probably going to be a little while yet.

“But he’s certainly getting better.

“Sullay unfortunately had a reaction when he came out on the grass the other week, so we’re just looking after him and making sure he doesn’t break down again.

“He will be a good addition to the outfield players when he’s back, that’s for sure.”
