Key Rotherham United midfielder confirms he will not play again in the current Championship season due to injury

ROTHERHAM United midfielder Christ Tiehi has announced that he will not play again this season due to a pelvic problem.

Tiehi, who joined the Millers for a then club record fee of £500,000 from Czech Republic side Slovan Liberec in the summer window, has made 37 appearances for the club in all competitions this term, scoring two goals.

Only goalkeeper Viktor Johansson has currently made more league starts in 2023-24 than former Ivory Coast under-20 international Tiehi, who was born in Paris.
