Warner joins after Muller injury

Barnsley have signed Fulham keeper Tony Warner on a month's loan after losing Heinz Muller to a potentially season-ending knee injury.

Muller, 29, was due to have an operation on Thursday after an MRI scan the previous day confirmed he had torn his lateral meniscus.

Warner, 33, has made just five appearances for Fulham this term.

He joined the Tykes on the same day that another keeper, Nick Colgan, 34, left Oakwell to sign for Ipswich.

However, Barnsley are concerned about the length of time that Muller may be sidelined.

"The worst case scenario is a lay-off of nine to 12 months if there's serious cruciate ligament damage," physio Richard Kay told the club website.

"The surgeon will have a look round before sorting what needs to be fixed."
