Huddersfield midfielder Kasey Palmer could return to action before the end of October, head coach David Wagner has revealed.
Wagner gave the latest update on the injured Chelsea loanee, who had been expected to be out until the new year, at a news conference before Tuesday night's Carabao Cup tie at Crystal Palace.
Palmer suffered a recurrence of an old hamstring injury while on recent international duty with England under-21s.
"There have been further discussions now between Chelsea's medical department and our medical department and another neutral specialist as well,'' Wagner said.
"So he has an injury, a serious injury, maybe not as bad as we thought in the beginning, but I don't expect him back before six to eight weeks.
