Norwich and Finland striker Teemu Pukki has scored 31 goals in 52 appearances for club and country this season and helped the Canaries win the Championship title and a return to the Premier League

Teemu Pukki and Oliver Skipp will miss Norwich City's final game of the Championship season at Barnsley.

Top-scorer Pukki, 31, damaged ligaments in his right ankle during the 4-1 win over Reading at the weekend.

Depending on the severity of the injury, he could be a doubt for Finland's European Championship campaign, which begins on 12 June.

Meanwhile, midfielder Skipp, who is on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, has had surgery on a fractured metatarsal.

The 20-year-old has featured 47 times in all competitions for the Canaries this season, scoring once.
