Fulham boss Scott Parker has confirmed that midfielder Josh Onomah has been ruled out for around six weeks after undergoing surgery on his knee injury.

Onomah missed Fulham's 1-1 draw with Derby on Friday night due to the problem he suffered against Barnsley, and the Fulham head coach has now revealed to the club website that the 22-year-old will miss six weeks of action after surgery on Saturday.

The midfielder had established himself as a regular starter in the side after finding his feet at Craven Cottage following his permanent switch from Tottenham over the summer, but Parker will now need to identify a midfield replacement for him.

Onomah has made a total of 26 senior appearances for the Cottagers this term, but the club has now taken to Twitter to share the news that he will now miss a considerable chunk of the remainder of the season.
