- Published
Derby County defender Craig Forsyth has been ruled out for months with a knee injury that will require surgery.
The 37-year-old was hurt in Tuesday's victory at Portsmouth and is set to meet with a specialist on Friday to determine what procedure he will require.
Rams boss John Eustace confirmed Forsyth will be "out for at least a couple of months", while also revealing that captain Lewis Travis faces up to five weeks out after undergoing scans on a knock received in the 3-0 defeat by Swansea City.
"Trav is going to be missing for four of five weeks, so it's not as bad as we first feared which is great news for us as it's another experienced player that can come back and help the team over the course of the season," Eustace told BBC Radio Derby.
