Southampton's Djenepo suffers injury setback
Southampton's Moussa Djenepo is facing an extended spell on the sidelines after manager Ralph Hasenhuettl confirmed the winger's leg injury is worse than first thought.
Djenepo, who has scored twice in his four Southampton appearances this season, missed Friday's 3-1 loss at Bournemouth in the Premier League with a recurring muscle injury in his upper leg.
Southampton had hoped Djenepo would return for the south coast derby against Portsmouth in the League Cup later on Tuesday but the damage to his tendons mean a longer spell in the treatment room.
