Papa Amadou Diallo out for 'months' with injury
- Published
Norwich City head coach Liam Manning has confirmed that Papa Amadou Diallo will miss months of action with a leg injury.
The 21-year-old Senegalese winger came off late in Saturday's 3-2 home defeat by Wrexham with a thigh injury which requires surgery.
Manning has been speaking to the press ahead of Saturday's game at Stoke City (15:00 BST). Here are some of the key points:
Diallo requires surgery and is likely to miss the rest of 2025.
Captain Kenny McLean will possibly return against Stoke. He missed the defeat against Wrexham with a back injury.
"Players were really honest" - Manning said some frank conversations have taken place following the Canaries' fourth home defeat of the season in all competitions.
Manning said he will have "a few more sleepless nights" before telling the players the team for Saturday's game.
