Norwich City have confirmed that striker Carl Cort will miss the rest of the season as he recovers from a foot operation.

The 31-year-old, who has made 13 senior appearances for the Canaries since signing in December - but has missed the last three matches - is definitely sidelined for six to eight weeks.

Physiotherapist Simon Spencer told the club's official website: “Carl's had minor surgery to remove the bursa underneath his foot - he'll be out for six to eight weeks but he'll start his rehab on Friday. Initially this will involve resting him and looking after the rest of his body, and continuing with his knee strengthening.

“Carl's well, and he's keen to get on with the rehab. After four weeks we hope to have him jogging and we'll then start building him back up to get him back.”
