Sheffield United boss Kevin Blackwell has revealed that midfielder Lee Williamson may require surgery on a back injury.
The 27-year-old is still struggling with the problem that has hampered his pre-season preparations.
The summer signing from Watford will find out on Monday whether or not he requires an operation and Blackwell is not optimistic.
"Lee saw a specialist on Thursday and the full ramifications of his problem will become clear on Monday," Blackwell told the club's official website.
"He has a bulging disc which could force him into an operation - it is disappointing for everyone.
"I think the problem is similar to what Gary Speed has had."

Great, we bought a player who will be out most if not all the season.... how did he pass his medical?
