(Reuters) - West Bromwich Albion winger James McClean has suffered a knee injury and could be set for a spell on the sidelines ahead of the Premier League season. McClean limped off in the 48th minute of West Brom's 2-1 loss to third tier Bristol Rovers in a pre-season friendly at Memorial Stadium on Saturday. West Brom also lost Chris Brunt to an injury in the same match, the midfielder substituted just before halftime with a calf issue. It's a question of whether he's strained his calf or it's just a result of landing awkwardly," Pulis added. West Brom, who finished 10th in the league last season, host Bournemouth in their opening game of the new campaign on Aug. 12.
