Fulham defender Zdenek Grygera has had a setback in his recovery from a long-term knee injury after picking up a thigh problem this week.

The 32-year-old, who came to the end of his contract at Craven Cottage in the summer, suffered the problem during a match in the reserve team.

"Grygera has had a setback because he got injured," the Daily Star quotes Jol as saying. "He looked ever so well, played in the reserves and kept them together.

"He has a thigh problem so we have to wait and see because we wanted to make a decision on him next week and now there is a little step back again."

Jol has been open about his uncertainty over offering the defender a new deal.
