Bradford wait on Morais

The Portuguese was forced out of the weekend draw against Gillingham after damaging ligaments in his right shoulder during an awkward fall.

“The checks have revealed that nothing is broken but he has damaged ligaments in his shoulder,” manager Phil Parkinson told the club’s official website.

“It is a set back for Fil, especially the way he has been playing lately.

“We’ll wait for the swelling to go down before getting a better idea of how long he’ll miss.

“We picked up a few other knocks during the (Gillingham) game – nothing major – but we’ll monitor those as well.”

Morais is almost certain to miss Saturday’s home game against Leyton Orient.
