Daryl Dike: West Brom striker set for more time out after suffering 'substantial' thigh injury

Injury-hit West Brom striker Daryl Dike is facing another extended period out of action after suffering a "substantial tear" to his thigh muscle.

After coming off the bench in Albion's opening game of this season, he hurt his thigh in training and has missed the last two matches.

"It's going to be a right few weeks," Baggies boss Steve Brue said.

"I have to stress it's a thigh injury - not his hamstring - so it's frustrating for all of us - for the crowd, for us and for him.

"He's just got to be mentally strong and get himself back again.
