Bristol City defender Cameron Pring is expected to be out for 12 weeks after picking up an ankle ligament injury during the side's training camp in Portugal.

The 27-year-old left-back is set to have surgery after being assessed back in Bristol.

It is the fourth injury Pring has sustained in less than a year, missing 14 Championship games last season due to issues with his hamstring plus a lower leg laceration in October.

Pring also missed out on the final two games of the regular season but did return to start the second leg of their play-off semi-final defeat by Sheffield United in May.
