Charlton will be without Kevin Lisbie for three months after the striker injured his shoulder in training.

The 27-year-old has undergone surgery and will be sidelined until at least the New Year.

"It was a freak injury. He just landed awkwardly in training," said Charlton boss Iain Dowie.

"It's very unfortunate because he has been working hard."

Meanwhile, Jerome Thomas could be in line for a recall ahead of Monday evening's meeting with Fulham.

The winger has be out of action since breaking a bone in his foot in a pre-season friendly with Hibs.
