Former Albion midfielder Yves Bissouma is facing a lay-off.

He has suffered a stress fracture to his left ankle, his current club Tottenham have announced.

Bissouma will undergo surgery tomorrow with no timescale as yet for a return to action.

Albion are due to visit Spurs on April 8.

The injury for Bissouma, who was spotted at Spurs' training ground today on crutches and in a protective boot, is the latest setback in a difficult season.

He has made just nine starts in all competitions.
