Dejagah out for season

Injured Fulham midfielder Ashkan Dejagah will miss the rest of the Barclays Premier League season, manager Martin Jol has confirmed.

Dejagah requires an operation to repair ankle ligament damaged suffered when he collided with an advertising hoarding in Fulham’s 3-2 victory over QPR on April 1.

The Iranian will go under the knife next week and he will not play again this campaign.

“Ashkan Dejagah needs an operation on his ankle ligament. That will be next week and I think he will be out for the rest of the season,” Jol said.
