'Kuyt out for several weeks'

6th Sep 2010 - Latest News

Dirk Kuyt will be out for several weeks with a shoulder injury, according to reports in the Dutch media.

De Telegraaf has reported that the 30-year-old was sent to hospital for scans after he sprained a joint landing awkwardly stretching to reach a cross.

Kuyt started Friday's 5-0 Euro 2012 qualifying thumping of San Marino but has been ruled out of Tuesday's clash against Finland.

Manager Bert Van Marwijk is quoted as saying: "He will probably have a few weeks off and at 4pm today he will step on to the plane to Liverpool."
