Charlton Athletic could be without Tottenham Hotspur loanee Milos Veljkovic for the rest of the season after he dislocated his shoulder on Saturday.
The Serbian teenager fell awkwardly during the 3-1 defeat to Middlesbrough and Charlton do not yet know how long he will be out of action for.
"After being treated in the emergency room with some gas and air we managed to get his shoulder put back in place," Charlton physio Erol Umut told the club website.
"At the moment he is undergoing observations and tests before he sees a shoulder specialist to determine the extent of the damage.
"That will tell us whether we need to treat him conservatively or if he needs an operation."
If he does not require an operation, Veljkovic, who has made three starts for Charlton since joining on loan last month, could return within a couple of weeks.
He is the third Charlton player to be treated for a dislocated shoulder this season after Simon Church and Stephen Henderson.
