Charlton midfielder Jose Semedo has been ruled out for the next two months after sustaining an ankle injury against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

It is Charlton's second injury blow inside 24 hours following Jay McEveley's shoulder injury which led to the end of his loan spell from Derby.

Charlton physio Steve Allen said: "Unfortunately, Semedo injured his ankle following a heavy challenge on Saturday, and is due to have a small operation on his syndesmosis joint on Monday night.

"Hopefully, his recovery will be quicker if we have a small operation now rather than treat it conservatively, but he will be out for a couple of months."
