Stephen Carr is ruled out for at least six months after undergoing knee surgery.

Birmingham City manager Lee Clark has revealed that Stephen Carr looks likely to miss the majority of the season after he underwent knee surgery.

Carr suffered a thigh problem in pre-season after beginning his comeback from an injury picked up in January, but a scan revealed that he required an operation on his knee and Clark has admitted that it is a huge blow for the club.

Clark told BBC WM: It's a massive blow for him as he's worked ever so hard to get back - and for me.

"He's had ongoing problems with his knee, with a cartilage problem, then, just when he was on the verge of making a comeback, he picked up a thigh strain against Antwerp. When they opened him up, they found quite a bit of damage.

"He's now had surgery, which will keep him out for a minimum of six months."

Carr has made 121 appearances for Birmingham City since coming out of retirement to play for the club in 2009.
