Scans have revealed that the on loan from Glasgow Rangers striker sustained a cruciate ligament injury just five minutes into making his City debut 69 minutes in the 1-0 win at Ashton Gate on Tuesday night.

"We're absolutely gutted for Andrius," said City manager Gary Johnson.

"This was a new start for him. He'd brought his family down.

"It's a terrible injury for a professional footballer."

The 30-year-old Lithuanian forward is now likely to return to Ibrox for rehabilitation.
