Charlton manager Alan Pardew will hold contract talks with injured striker Svetoslav Todorov at the end of the season.

Bulgarian Todorov, who suffered a serious knee injury against Plymouth in October, is out of contract in the summer and will not play again until next term.

"He is now running around and training, but in all honesty we don't expect him to be involved before the end of the season," said Pardew.

"Toddy's worked extremely hard and his operation has been a great success. His leg's looked good and strong, but he still needs some healing time.

"We will have to sit down with him at the end of the season to talk about the future."

Charlton travel to fellow promotion hopefuls Plymouth at the weekend, with both sides hoping to edge closer to the promotion places.
