Swansea City manager Garry Monk has confirmed that defender Kyle Bartley will be out of action for around six weeks as he is due to undergo a knee operation.
The 23-year-old, who joined the Welsh club from Arsenal in 2012, suffered a tear during a training session.
In today's press conference, Monk confirmed that Bartley will go under the knife today and will not be available for over a month.
Bartley has made nine appearances so far this season.
