Roy Hodgson admits that Zoltan Gera has been suffered a "major blow" following the midfielder's knee injury against Tottenham on Saturday.

West Bromwich Albion manager Roy Hodgson has confirmed that Baggies midfielder Zoltan Gera will be ruled out for the "foreseeable future" after suffering a serious knee injury at the weekend.

The 32-year-old was dealt the blow during the side's 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

"We still don't know for sure how long [Gera] will be out for but we know we won't be able to call on his services for the foreseeable future," Hodgson told the club's official website. "This will be a major blow both on the training pitch and the match arena.

"Zoltan is now in the hands of our excellent medical and sports science department and we just have to hope and pray that his stint on the sidelines is not an overly prolonged one."

The Hungary captain will undergo medical tests regarding the extent of his injury this week.
