Aaron Lennon's World Cup hopes took a further blow after he suffered a fresh injury setback in training.
The Tottenham winger has not played this year due to a groin strain and with England's initial World Cup

party due to be announced in just over a month, time appears to be running out for Lennon.

Fabio Capello

has always stressed that he will not take a player to South Africa

unless he is fully fit.
Now Lennon looks to have a real battle on his hands to overcome his current problem and prove his fitness before the end of the season.
"He trained on Monday and had a bit of a setback again," confirmed Spurs boss Harry Redknapp.

"Hopefully he'll be fit for the World Cup - I hope he's fit to play for Tottenham first and foremost.
"He's sore again. He's come out in training and felt a bit sore after. So I don't know.
"We just have to keep our fingers crossed but it's been a long time."

looks like hes definately not in contention for tomorrow

(sorry if this is posted elsewhere!)

He's been out so long I wouldn't be surprised if its normal to feel a bit sore. He probably just needs a bit more time to heal rather than another op. Fingers crossed. I want him somewhat fit for the Man City game, as close to 100% as possible.

we would have played if England did not qualify for thew world cup. He just wants to be fit for that

If Lennon isn't back soon, you'll be at the Lane watching us battling for 5th/6th place...
