Harry Redknapp reveals that QPR defender Stephane Mbia is "okay" and should be fit for next week after leaving the field on a stretcher this afternoon.

Queens Park Rangers manager Harry Redknapp has said that Stephane Mbia is "okay" and should be fit for next week after appearing to suffer a serious injury in today's match against Aston Villa.

The Cameroonian was stretchered off the field with a neck brace during the first half at Loftus Road after a collision with Gabriel Agbonlahor.

Mbia tweeted from hospital earlier this evening: "Actually in hospital ;( I want and I will come back soon as I can."

New Rangers boss Redknapp has since revealed that Mbia should recover quickly, he told the club's website: "He's okay. He's just got a bit of a neck injury.

"He's gone to hospital for a check-up, but I don't think there's any problem.

"He should be fit for next week."

QPR's draw with fellow strugglers Villa leaves them seven points adrift of safety in the Premier League.
