SOUTHEND United head coach Kevin Maher is still waiting to discover the full extent of Kacper Lopata’s knee injury.

The on loan Sheffield United defender has gone back to the Blades for a scan after missing Saturday’s 4-1 defeat at Notts County.

And Maher is now facing a nervous wait.

“Kacper’s gone back to have a scan after feeling some pain in the outside of his knee," said Maher.

"Once he’s had we will know more then."
