Peterborough United's summer signing Claude Gnapka is set to miss the start of the season after suffering an ankle injury in a pre-season friendly.
The 24-year-old former Swindon Town defender sustained ligament damage against Stevenage Borough and Posh boss Darren Ferguson says the Frenchman has been very unfortunate.
He told the Evening Telegraph: "Claude has done very well since he joined us and he was definitely in contention for a starting place when the league season starts.
"He has looked good at right-back and centre-back, so it is a blow for us and the player.
"But we have plenty of players capable of turning out in either position, so we should be able to cope."
