Middlesbrough Football Club’s Robert Huth faces a month on the sidelines.

The German international has been out of action since early October after damaging ankle ligaments, and although he doesn’t face surgery, he will be out for four weeks.

"It's more or less what we expected," said Gareth Southgate. "Robert is already working hard in rehab and we'll look forward to his return as soon as he is fully fit again."
