Dailymail - Fulham's Ashkan Dejagah fears for his World Cup place with Iran due to his lack of games for Martin Jol.

The winger has been warned by Iran manager Carlos Queiroz he needs first-team football and may seek a move in January if he does not start playing regularly for his club.

'It’s a big year for me,' he said. 'It’s a dream to play in the World Cup and I have the chance to do that next summer, so it’s very important that I’m playing.

'The manager tells us every time that we have to be playing for our clubs because you need games to be sharp heading into the tournament. If you’re not playing you’re scared about your World Cup chances, so hopefully I’m fit and ready.'

Dejagah signed for the Cottagers from Bundesliga side Wolfsburg in August 2012 and has made 23 appearances for the west London club.

The 27-year-old represented Germany at youth level, playing 20 times for the country's Under 21 side, but was called up to the full Iran national team in 2011 by former Manchester United coach Queiroz.

Iran qualified for next summer's tournament in Brazil after finishing top of their World Cup qualifying group on 16 points above South Korea and Uzbekistan.
