West Brom top scorer Maja out with lower leg injury

Managerless West Bromwich Albion have been dealt another blow after losing top scorer Josh Maja with "a lower leg injury".

The 26-year-old is second-highest scorer in the Championship this season, with 12 goals from 26 matches, behind only Norwich City's Borja Sainz.

But Albion say he will have to undergo surgery, before a period of rehabilitation and that he will be out for "several weeks"., external

After a hat-trick in the surprise opening-day 3-1 win at Queens Park Rangers, Maja has continued to prove more prolific on the road, scoring in five more away games.
