Leeds have announced midfielder Kalvin Phillips could be ruled out for six weeks due to a shoulder injury.

The Premier League club confirmed Phillips damaged his shoulder in Monday night's home defeat to Wolves, but does not require surgery.

"Leeds midfielder Kalvin Phillips suffered a shoulder injury in last night's Premier League defeat to Wolves at Elland Road," the club said on their official website.

"While we are pleased to confirm that surgery is not required, the Leeds-born England international could still face up to six weeks on the sidelines.

"Kalvin began his rehab at Thorp Arch (on Tuesday) morning and will be working hard with the medical team to return to action as soon as possible."
