Fulham defender Zdenek Grygera's hopes of securing a new deal at Craven Cottage are hanging in the balance after he suffered an injury setback.

Grygera, 32, has not played for the first team since sustaining a cruciate ligament injury last November, but had been in action for the reserves and was close to regaining full fitness when the setback happened.

Fulham boss Martin Jol said he would wait until the injury cleared up before deciding whether or not the Czech would be offered a new deal.

"Grygera has had a setback because he got injured," Jol said. "He has a thigh problem, so we have to wait and see.

"We wanted to make a decision on him in the next week, and now there's a little step back again."
