He stated to reporters: He's done brilliantly this season, but I think with the back problem that he has, rest is probably the right way for us to go and even if there was a chance.
And there possibly was if we pushed him to come back we took that away very early with his age and thinking about his long-term prospects."
Per Chronicle Live, the club are working with a specialist to ensure that Miley's injury is not long-term.
