Wednesday's Injury Crisis Deepens
20 Jan
Summary
- Two more defenders, Fusire and Alao, are injured for Sheffield Wednesday.
- Fusire faces a six-week layoff with a hamstring issue.
- The club now has 14 first-team players unavailable due to injuries.
Sheffield Wednesday is grappling with a significant injury crisis, as defenders Sean Fusire and Yisa Alao have been added to an extensive absentee list.
Zimbabwean international Fusire is reported by BBC Radio Sheffield's Andy Giddings to be out for approximately six weeks due to a hamstring injury.
Teenage left-back Alao sustained an unspecified issue and was substituted just after the hour mark during the recent 1-0 defeat against Portsmouth. He is now facing a potential three-week spell on the sidelines.
These latest additions bring the total number of first-team players unavailable for selection to 14. This depleted squad faces a challenging Championship fixture against Birmingham City at Hillsborough tonight.
