Gillingham striker Luke Norris has been ruled out for up to 10 weeks by injury.

The 22-year-old sustained the ankle injury during the first half of the clash with Crewe earlier this month and is expected to be out of action until at least early December.

Manager Justin Edinburgh told the club's official website: "Luke went and saw the consultant on Tuesday and he's given a time span of anywhere between six to 10 weeks, so that's something we will have to look at and maybe look to the loan market to strengthen.

"He's taken a part of the ligament off the bone. It's a big injury and a blow to us.
