Ferdinand still six weeks away from return

Soccer Betting Lines

07/25/2010 - Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand is still six weeks away from returning to action.

Ferdinand looks set to miss the start of the new season despite previous suggestions of a full recovery from the knee injury he picked up at the World Cup.

The 31-year-old missed the tournament after damaging knee ligaments during England's first training session in South Africa.

He now seems highly unlikely to be fit for the first Premier League game of the season against Newcastle on August 16.
