Brentford winger Kirk Hudson faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering a hip injury.
The 24-year-old made just four substitute appearances for the Bees after joining from Aldershot last summer and was farmed out on loan to AFC Wimbledon for the second half of the season. Bees boss Uwe Rosler told the Hounslow Chronicle: "He has a hip injury and won't be available for several months." Meanwhile, centre-half Karleigh Osborne has undergone an MRI scan on a persistent back problem.
