Manchester United skipper Garry Neville could be out for a few more
week weeks after setbacks in his recovery.
Gary Neville has been out of action for five months following an
ankle operation, but was set to return to action in the next few
days.
However, a fresh setback during his recovery - he has now picked up
a calf problem - has meant that the right-back will not be coming
back until after the international break.
"It will be another couple of weeks for Gary," confirmed Ferguson.
"We are frustrated with the situation because the operation was
fine.
"The surgeons did find a few little bits in there which they had to
repair as well, which meant a longer recovery period, but then Gary
suffered a little setback with a calf injury.
"That sometimes happens when you are trying to compensate after an
operation. So the ankle is okay, now the calf is the
problem."
