Bromby, who began his career at Sheffield Wednesday and had two stints at Sheffield United before joining Leeds in September 2009, has made a total of 12 appearances this season.
On Bromby’s injury, Warnock said: “He will be out for a long, long time – I’d be surprised if he is back before Christmas. It could be a year.
“I’m gutted and disappointed for him because he has just come back in the team and done well.
