Glasgow Tigers are anxiously awaiting news on their teenage star Nike Lunna.

The 19-year-old Finnish under-21 champion crashed in the Swedish play-offs.

The rider, who made his league debut in 2015, was taken to hospital with a suspected wrist injury.

It’s a blow as Glasgow are due at SGB Championship pace-setters Sheffield Tigers on Thursday with the return in the West of Scotland on Saturday.

A Tigers spokesman said: “We’ll bring you more news when we have it.”
