But Jackett is upbeat the outlook for the man who arrived last month will not be too drastic.

He said: ‘He’s having a scan today and the initial reaction without a scan is four to six weeks. That’s what the guys think.

‘It is what is, and we just hope now that the scan doesn’t throw anything worse at us.’
