Kerala Blasters captain Sergio Cidoncha is likely to miss the rest of ISL Season 7 with a ligament injury. The experienced midfielder picked up the injury during Blasters' goalless draw with Chennaiyin FC on Sunday.

Cidoncha, who scored Blasters' opening goal in the 2-2 draw with NorthEast United, will take at least two months to recover from the injury, said the club's sporting director Karolis Skinkys.

Blasters will be tempted to rope in a new midfielder in the January transfer window.

Blasters have two points from thee games and next meet FC Goa on Sunday (December 6).
