Lawal out for 'several weeks' with hamstring injury
Stoke City boss Mark Robins has confirmed that defender Bosun Lawal will be on the sidelines for several weeks after picking up a "significant" hamstring injury.
Lawal will also miss out on international duty with the Republic of Ireland, with boss Heimir Hallgrimsson stating that the versatile footballer will be out for four to five weeks.
Robins is not so certain on the timeline provided by the Icelandic manager.
"It might be shorter, it might be longer, who knows but he's got a significant hamstring injury so it's a real blow," the Potters boss told BBC Radio Stoke.
"Without a shadow of a doubt, he's been one of the best players not just here but in the whole Championship."
