Fulham to assess new Christensen injury

By

Fulham manager Kit Symons hopes a hamstring injury picked up by Lasse Vigen Christensen does not prove to be serious.

The 20-year-old was forced off after 43 minutes of the Whites’ 2-0 win at home to Derby on Saturday.

The Denmark Under-21 international only returned from a previous hamstring injury in January.

“I’m hoping it’s not serious and he won’t be out for too long,” Symons said.

“He’ll be assessed and we’ll know more tomorrow. It looks like he’s tweaked his other hamstring this time.

“He’d been in scintillating form before his last injury and he’s played his way back in.  But he’s been frustrated because that pace and explosiveness hadn’t quite come back.

“He’s disappointed because he wants to play every minute of every game but he’ll be fine.

“He’ll bounce back and he’s beginning to learn to manage his own body.”
