Speaking to themillers.co.uk Warney said; “He's seen a couple of specialists and unfortunately for Lee and for the team, he's going under the knife next week and that is his season over, Obviously the injury happened against Leeds and when we initially scanned him a few days after the injury there was no ligament or cartilage damage."
“We thought he would be getting back on the grass a lot sooner than he was. Every few days he'd try and go on the grass but was in too much pain, so then he was re-scanned.”
“I'm not 100% sure but I think it could be anything between four and six months. He'll get great duty of care from everyone is here because we think the world of him. He'll be under Mike Preston's supervision and he knows what he's doing so he'll get his attention." Warne added
