England: Fresh setback for Man U striker Solskjaer [Fri Sep 2nd, 2005]

Reports suggest Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has suffered a fresh setback in his return from a knee injury.

"He has picked up a tear inside his knee. It is a very recent injury," Swedish knee specialist Lars Petersson told Norwegian newspaper VG.

Petersson operated on Solskjaer last year, and added: "I thought he might be back in October, but it is impossible to set a date now."

Asked whether he is 100% sure Solskjaer will come back at all as a top-level player, Petersson added: "No. I am never 100% sure in these cases."
