English Premier League football club West Bromwich Albion confirmed Wednesday that team captain Chris Brunt will be out for five to six weeks owing to a ligament damage in his knee.
"Albion have been dealt a blow with Chris Brunt being ruled out for five to six weeks due to a knee injury," said the club on its website.
The 29-year-old Brunt, a Northern Ireland midfielder, sustained the injury in his side's 0-3 loss to Manchester United Saturday.
West Brom have grabbed 25 points after 28 matches and are currently in 17th place in the Premier League table.
