Championship side Charlton Athletic will be without on-loan midfielder Frederic Bulot for up to five games after he was called up to the Gabon squad for the Africa Cup of Nations.
The 24-year-old, who is on a season-long loan from Standard Liege, will join up with his country after the FA Cup third-round tie against Blackburn Rovers on January 3 for the tournament which runs from January 17 to February 8.
Bulot has made 11 appearances, five of which have been starts, for the Addicks this season.
He will become the third Charlton player to feature in the biennial tournament, following Shaun Bartlett and Talal El Karkouri.
