Republic of Ireland attacker Troy Parrott will miss the next international break after suffering an injury during a goal celebration last weekend.

The Preston North End player, who is on loan at the Championship club from Premier League outfit Tottenham Hostpur, scored the match-winner for his side against Norwich City in the 80th minute before he was forced off straight after he found the net.

The goal was Parrott's first of the season but the 20-year-old now looks set to be out of action for "the foreseeable future" after Preston boss Ryan Lowe confirmed that he underwent scans.
