The Story in 60 Seconds

West Bromwich Albion manager James Morrison has confirmed that club captain George Campbell faces 10 to 12 days out with a groin injury. The center-back was forced off at halftime during West Brom's recent draw against Southampton. Morrison revealed the timeline ahead of Saturday's Championship clash against Millwall, expressing hope that the defender will miss only a single match.

Campbell's absence leaves Nat Phillips and Chris Mepham as the Baggies' only fit senior center-backs, with Phillips likely to start against Millwall. Additionally, Campbell is expected to withdraw from the United States national team squad for their November fixtures, allowing him to target a return for West Brom's meeting with Swansea City following the international break.
