Huddersfield Town’s Josh Koroma out for three months

Koroma, 22, left the field in Tuesday night’s 2-0 win over Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday clutching his hamstring and Town head coach Carlos Corberan confirmed on Thursday that he would be sidelined for up to three months.

Koroma’s importance to the team has been highlighted with his recent scoring streak, goals in three of Town’s last four games, all of which have resulted in victories.

In fact, Town have lost only once when the former Leyton Orient man has scored.

“We are going to lose Koroma for some months, maybe three months,” confirmed Corberan.

“It’s an important injury, the tearing of a hamstring.

“I am always sad when we lose a player because I know how important it is for them to be in a good condition.

“Koroma has been one of the important players this year.

“It’s a negative for the player, and a player we now have to manage.”

Corberan also confirmed that Christopher Schindler’s expected return is still three months away while Jonathan Hogg was brought off on Tuesday night against Sheffield Wednesday as a precaution but will not be available for Saturday’s trip to Bournemouth.
