"Licha was returning and you see his contribution to the team when he is playing, apart from the technical skills also the mentality.

"It is a big setback for Licha, he is very disappointed but he is a fighter.

"He will be back, stronger back and will play by the end of the season.

"As a a squad we have to replace him and we have players who can play there and will play there."

On new contract talks for Jonny Evans and Raphael Varane, he added: "We haven't made the decision yet."
