Kasey Palmer faces long spell on sidelines with hamstring injury

Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner reveals that Chelsea loanee Kasey Palmer could be out until the New Year with a hamstring injury.

Huddersfield Town manager David Wagner has confirmed that Kasey Palmer faces a long spell on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.

The Chelsea loanee picked up the problem on international duty with England Under-21s against their Latvian counterparts in Bournemouth on September 5.

Palmer, who missed Huddersfield's 2-0 loss at West Ham United earlier this week, is not expected to be back until November at the earliest, according to Wagner.

The Terriers boss told reporters: "He doesn't want to blame anyone. Maybe Kasey has to recognise the signs quicker, even if it is with England. He felt something after the first game and still continued to train.

"For sure he will not be back in the next six to eight weeks. I am not sure yet if he'll be out until the New Year. It needs further investigation. We have options but every injury hurts you."

Palmer was also on loan last season at the John Smith's Stadium but returned to Stamford Bridge for rehabilitation after suffering an injury in February.
