Burnley keeper Jensen harbours World Cup ambitions
Burnley keeper Brian Jensen has not yet given up on appearing at the World Cup.
The Dane was drafted into the national squad in September for the World Cup qualifier at home to Portugal but has yet to feature for his country.
"When Denmark played Portugal I was on standby over there for the other two goalkeepers in case anything happened because Thomas Sorensen was suspended," he said.
"I was basically cover but since then I hadn't really heard anything.
"At least now they have told me the door is open - but the only thing I'm thinking about is doing my best for Burnley.
"Hopefully that will be good enough, but it's not for me to say, it's down to the Danish manager (Morten Olsen).
"At the moment I'm probably fifth choice from his point of view, but hopefully I can fight my way into the squad.
"It will be my last chance, but fingers crossed I will do enough at the end of the season. Only time will tell."
