Ikeme suffers broken metatarsal

Wolverhampton Wanderers have been dealt a blow after goalkeeper Carl Ikeme was ruled out for up to eight weeks with a broken metatarsal.

The 28-year-old has been one of the Molineux outfit's star performers this season, with the stopper keeping 13 clean sheets in his 30 appearances in all competitions.

However, Ikeme faces being sidelined until the start of April after he broke his second metatarsal during training, although the club revealed that he wouldn't require surgery on the injury.

Head coach Kenny Jackett will now turn to second-choice Tomasz Kuszczak, who is yet to make an appearance after joining on a free transfer in November.
