Hull City defender James Chester could need an operation after dislocating his shoulder during the 3-0 defeat at West Ham United.
Chester was forced off in the first period of their game at Upton Park, and boss Steve Bruce confirmed that Chester is his tenth player on the sidelines.
He told reporters: "Unfortunately Chester has dislocated his shoulder, we are awaiting X-rays. At this early stage it looks like he probably needs an operation. It adds to the list of injuries which is unfortunate for us at the minute."
Chester has played 18 games for Hull this season.
