Reds boss Gudjon Thordarson is anxiously awaiting news of Dean Gorre's knee injury, amid fears that the influential midfielder needs surgery.

He told the club's official website: "Dean will see a specialist on Saturday and will probably be forced to have an operation on his right knee next week.

"We cannot confirm how long he will be out for after the operation and the specialist has seen just what is going on inside his knee, but it does not look promising.

"I think the injury he has is fairly serious and there may be the chance that the doctor could help him out until the end of the season, but at that point Dean would have to see what he wants to do for his own future."
