Cambridge United are preparing for some tough news after Kylian Kouassi pulled a hamstring during their 0-0 draw with Barnet.
The 22-year-old striker had to come off around the 50th minute at the Cledara Abbey Stadium, making way for Louis Appere.
“It doesn’t look a good one – we’ll have more of a steer during the week,” manager Neil Harris told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire.
“We were thinking about Kylian and Louis as a pair – certainly from the hour mark – so we were just getting Louis ready and Kylian goes down, so that threw that plan.
“The overriding emotion is disappointment for Kylian personally but also gutted for us as a group.”
Harris hinted that because of the injuries piling up in the squad, they might need to bring in new players during January’s transfer window.
“We’re going to have to find solutions over the coming weeks,” he said.
“We’re a work in progress as a group and transfer windows help your work in progress, and we need one now.”
Cambridge haven’t won any of their last three league matches-two draws and one loss-and currently sit 12th in League Two, just three points shy of the playoff spots.
Despite keeping a clean sheet against Barnet, Harris wasn’t happy with how they played overall.
He added: “With the ball we were miles off it, our movement was laboured at times.
“It was our biggest game of the season, it was brilliant to see so many fans here getting behind the team and we didn’t quite do enough – that’s my frustration.> классе = “ссорсс – цихвхг-Параграф еІджхзв₇₁₀ “> “That was our poorest [home] performance so far.” >
