Out for extended period Wood (hamstring) is expected to miss the next seven to eight weeks of action with his current injury, John Percy of the Daily Telegraph reported Monday.

Impact Wood's loss could have a major effect on a club that is currently in the battle of avoiding the relegation zone, as they will now be without their top scorer and starting striker around the next eight matches in Premier League play. This will now leave the club limited in the attack, with new signing Giovanni Reyna possibly having to step into more of a forward role despite normally playing as an attacking midfielder, especially with loanee Divock Origi still out for another two weeks with a strain. The club will now hope for a speedy recovery and a return sometime in early April from Wood, hoping to avoid any setbacks in his rehabilitation process.
