Yerson Mosquera faces a significant period on the sidelines after suffering a serious knee injury during Saturday’s game at Aston Villa.
The Colombian was injured during the second half at Villa Park and stretched off, and tests in the days which followed confirmed the severity of his injury.
Head of high performance Phil Hayward said: “Yerson has now had all of the various assessments and scans which unfortunately confirm injuries to the medial collateral ligament (MCL) and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
“We will be visiting specialists in the coming days to finalise the plan for surgery; this will take place in the next two weeks.
“Clearly there is a long recovery period ahead for Yerson, and the club will be providing all the support he needs to ensure a successful rehabilitation and a return to competition in due course.
“Timescales are difficult to state prior to surgery but it is highly unlikely he will feature again this season.”
