Fulham could be without club captain Tom Cairney for the next month due to an ankle problem, according to a report.

Fulham could reportedly be without club captain Tom Cairney for the next month due to an ankle problem.

Cairney has been forced to withdraw from the Scotland squad for their upcoming fixtures with Belgium and Albania with the injury that he suffered against Burnley in the Premier League on Sunday.

The 27-year-old received a blow to his ankle during the league fixture, and according to The Sun could now miss the next four weeks of the campaign.

Cairney was key in Fulham's promotion to the Premier League last season, and has started each of the club's three top-flight fixtures this term.

Fulham will attempt to make it back-to-back Premier League wins when they face Brighton & Hove Albion this weekend.
