Derby County defender Craig Forsyth suffered an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Tuesday’s 1-0 home win over Queens Park Rangers, it has been confirmed.
The Scotland international left-back sustained the injury in the first half of the game at the iPro Stadium.
He underwent a scan on Wednesday and is due to visit the same surgeon that operated on Will Hughes, who suffered a similar injury earlier in the season, over the coming days.
Head Coach Paul Clement said: “It’s disappointing for Craig to suffer an ACL injury and he’s set to miss the rest of the season.
“It was a freak incident and he’ll visit the surgeon in the coming days to be assessed.”
Forsyth has made 127 appearances for Derby since joining from Watford in 2013, initially on loan.
Everyone connected with Derby County wishes Craig a speedy recovery.
