Hull's Dieumerci Mbokani out for up to six weeks with hamstring injury

Hull striker Dieumerci Mbokani has been ruled out for up to six weeks with a hamstring injury.

The Congo international, on loan from Dynamo Kiev for the season, was injured during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Burnley.

Mbokani's absence was announced as part of an injury update on Hull's website which also featured news of defender Harry Maguire - another casualty from the weekend.

A club statement reads: "Following on from the injury picked up during Saturday's game against Burnley, Harry Maguire's knee has settled down well.

"The medical staff will continue to monitor Maguire in the lead up to next weekend's trip to Leicester City."

Fellow centre-backs Michael Dawson and Curtis Davies are not expected to feature against the Foxes but midfielder Evandro and winger Lazar Markovic are making good progress.

Markus Henriksen continues his recovery from a dislocated shoulder while young goalkeeper Will Mannion is to undergo knee surgery and will miss the remainder of the season.
