Barry Douglas has made 27 appearances for Leeds this season
The defender left Elland Road in a leg brace, with the scans revealing the club’s worst fears.
Douglas will be out of action for up to 12 weeks, with the recovery period therefore ruling him out of the Championship run-in.
The news comes as a big blow to Marcelo Bielsa’s men, who are two points clear of third place Sheffield United in the race for automatic promotion.
