Newcastle United striker Andy Carroll is being sent to a knee specialist in Sweden.
The Independent says Carroll is to fly to Sweden tomorrow to consult a specialist over his troublesome thigh injury.
Speaking on BBC Radio Newcastle from the club's Portugal training camp, Pardew said: "We brought him to Portugal to start running and the disappointing news is that he hasn't.
"His injury is in the muscle just above the tendon where it joins the knee, so it's not an area that gets great circulation, so therefore it doesn't heal quickly.
"We have had a consultation this week to send him to someone who's the world's best tendon repair expert.
"You get these experts in different fields and this guy is in the Arctic end of Sweden and he is flying out there on Friday, and we are hoping that we can turn him around quickly.
"But now I have to say that Fulham is definitely out and maybe even Arsenal."
