Traore relieved QPR season not over

Queens Park Rangers defender Armand Traore thought his season was over with a broken leg after a collision against Norwich, however no fracture was suffered. "I'm very happy to be back because about a month ago I was told I had a fracture in my shin - a broken leg," the Senegal international told the Fulham Chronicle.

"They told me I was out for at least six months.

"It happened against Norwich when (Robert) Snodgrass gave me a big tackle.

"I went to see a specialist, who said there was no fracture but a stress response, which meant that if I keep playing on it, it will snap. It was a big relief.

"I'm very happy but I'm still a bit scared - my confidence is not there. I hope it should be OK now. I'm just going to have to wait and see.

"I just want to build up my confidence now and play as regularly as I can. I know what I can do and just want to stay injury-free and push on."
