Kim has been a regular for West Brom this season

West Bromwich Albion will be without Do-Heon Kim for up to six weeks after he sustained a knee injury in the 1-0 win over Middlesbrough on Saturday.

The South Korean was taken off in the first minute with suspected medial knee ligament damage after attempting to run onto Robert Koren's pass.

"Kim needs to go and get a scan," boss Tony Mowbray told the club's website.

"We hope it's only medial knee damage to keep him out for six weeks, and that it's not any worse than that."

The Baggies are already without midfielder Chris Brunt, who sustained a hamstring injury in the 2-1 defeat at rivals Aston Villa last week.
