Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand will not return to full fitness before next month, manager Alex Ferguson has confirmed.

The England captain has been out of action since June after suffering a knee ligament injury that ruled him out of the World Cup.

"Ferdinand is nowhere near fitness. He’s doing little bits of jogging and things like that. He’s at least a month away," Ferguson said ahead of Monday's game with Newcastle.

Ferdinand is now set to miss England's opening EURO 2012 qualifiers against Bulgaria and Switzerland next month.
