Senderos to discover injury fate by Friday

Philippe Senderos will find out by Friday if his season is in ruins after he suffered a suspected ruptured Achilles tendon in training with Fulham.

The Swiss centre-back only moved to Craven Cottage from Arsenal this summer after spending seven years in north London.

Harry Redknapp is reportedly interested in signing £12m-rated Hangeland, but as Hughes would be left with just the Norwegian, Aaron Hughes and Chris Baird at centre-back.

A Fulham spokesman told TalkSPORT: “The club is waiting for the outcome of the specialist’s report.
