Blow for Ireland and West Brom as Dara O’Shea ruled out with knee injury
Ireland's Dara O'Shea in action against Randal Kolo Muani of France
West Brom are counting the cost of Ireland's international window as Dara O'Shea has picked up an injury which could potentially end his season while Jayson Molumby is also sidelined for a number of weeks.
The duo reported back for duty with their club earlier this week but Baggies boss Carlos Corberan today confirmed that O'Shea had sustained a knee injury while Molumby has a groin strain.
"Skipper O’Shea picked up a knee injury playing for the Republic of Ireland against France at the Aviva Stadium in a UEFA Euro 2024 qualifier on Monday night, and Corberán has confirmed the defender will be out of action for around seven to eight weeks," West Brom's official club website said.
