John Eustace gave an injury update before Derby County's Saturday trip to Sheffield United, confirming captain Lewis Travis will be out until after the next international break while Alex Mowatt remains a doubt.
Travis set for spell out
Eustace said: "Trav’s going to be out until after the next international break."
Lewis Travis suffered an ankle injury in the defeat to Stoke City and has since undergone a scan.
Eustace said: "That’s obviously a big blow to us over the next four games."
Different injury from before
Eustace said: "It’s a different injury from the one that kept him out before. He went in for a tackle, and he’s just gone over on his ankle, unfortunately."
Mowatt remains a doubt
Eustace said: "Alex will be touch-and-go for the weekend. He hasn’t really trained yet, so we’ll have to wait and see with him. He had a bad cut to the foot, and he’s had stitches in that, so we’ll see on that."
Robinson pushing to be involved
Free agent signing Jack Robinson is pushing to be involved soon.
Eustace said: "It won’t take him too long to get up to speed. He’s a very experienced pro. He’s still kept himself in good shape, so let’s wait and see."
