Leeds United's Charlie Cresswell set for operation after suffering fractured eye socket

Leeds United loanee Charlie Cresswell will likely need an operation to resolve the damage caused from a fractured eye socket, according to Millwall boss Gary Rowett.

Cresswell suffered the horrific injury during Millwall's clash with West Brom as he came off in stoppage-time during Saturday's 0-0 draw. It was a bitter blow to the Leeds youngster who had so far shone during his time away from Elland Road.

Although it is still unclear how long Cresswell will be out for, Rowett believes the defender may likely need to have an operation to correct the damage that has been done.
