Preston midfielder Holmes out with broken leg

Duane Holmes has scored once in 35 appearances for Preston this season

Preston North End midfielder Duane Holmes is expected to be out for two months with a fractured fibula.

The 30-year-old suffered the injury in a tackle with Norwich defender Shane Duffy during Tuesday's 1-0 win at Carrow Road.

"It was a poor challenge, a needless challenge," assistant Stuart McCall told BBC Radio Lancashire.

"Duane's done well for us, he's probably been involved in every game. We're disappointed."
