Czech Republic head coach Petr
Rada has revealed that Tomas Rosicky has suffered a setback in his
recovery from injury.
The Arsenal playmaker is currently sidelined after undergoing
hamstring surgery in May, but had been expected to make a full
recovery in September.
However, Rada has stated that he is unsure if Rosicky will be at
his disposal for the 2010 World Cup qualifiers versus Poland and
Slovenia in October.
He told Denik Sport: "Tomas has started another stage
of recovery, including training with the ball.
"But recently his knee reacted badly to that. It is very
difficult to predict if he will be ready for the World Cup
qualifiers against Poland and Slovenia in October."
Rosicky's agent, Pavel Paska, added: "Without the permission of
Arsenal I am not allowed to be more specific on Tomas' health."
