Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has returned to training ahead of Sunday's crucial clash with Marseille.
The
Sweden captain has been struggling with a heel injury in recent weeks
and last featured for the French champions in a 1-1 draw with Lyon in
September.
However, the talismanic 33-year-old could now be set to feature in
the top-of-the-table meeting with leaders Marseille after resuming
training in the French capital.
PSG confirmed Ibrahimovic's return via an image on their official
Twitter account, accompanied with the message "@Ibra_official is back in
training!"
Ibrahimovic was absent as PSG booked their place in the last 16 of
the UEFA Champions League with victory over APOEL in midweek.
Coach Laurent Blanc confirmed Ibrahimovic's absence in the pre-match
news conference ahead of that clash, stating "He is not far, but is
still missing something".
However, Blanc also explained that it had been more a case of
Ibrahimovic regaining his touch rather than recovering from a physical
problem, suggesting the forward could return for Sunday's clash at the
Parc des Princes.
