Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper is down to just two fit senior centre-backs for the upcoming Premier League game against Manchester City, with the club handed a double injury blow.
Both Scott McKenna and Willy Boly were taken off in the opening stages of the 2-0 loss against Fulham at the weekend, with both centre-backs suffering injuries. They were replaced by new signing Filipe and Joe Worrall.
The extent of the injuries to the two centre-backs have now been reported by The Telegraph’s John Percy. It is said that Boly will be out for up to three months, and McKenna for six to eight weeks after both suffered hamstring injuries with the duo undergoing scans this week.
