Blackburn Rovers striker Sam Gallagher has been ruled out for up to two months.
The 28-year-old was forced off after 59 minutes of Saturday's 2-1 home win over Middlesbrough with a calf injury.
"He's an important player and I feel sorry for the boy because he wants to help the team," boss Jon Dahl Tomasson told the Championship club's website.
"He's a great lad, he has a great mentality and attitude, but we can't change it [his absence]."
