Sheff Wed defender Iorfa out for up to eight weeks

Sheffield Wednesday will be without defender Dominic Iorfa for up to two months because of a muscular injury.

The 29-year-old was forced off in the final 20 minutes of the Owls' 2-2 draw with Millwall in the Championship last Saturday.

Iorfa has started 13 league games this season, including the last five matches, as Wednesday's strong winter form as moved them up to 10th and within three points of the play-offs.

"Dom will be out for around eight weeks - which is a long, long time and it's not nice," head coach Danny Rohl told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"It's not helpful but we have to find solutions and it's a chance for Gab (Gabriel Otegbayo) to get more minutes."

Otegbayo replaced Iorfa against Millwall and scored the 85th minute equaliser for his first senior goal.

Sheffield Wednesday visit Coventry City in the FA Cup third round on Saturday evening (18:00 GMT).
