The Crystal Palace faithful have been buoyed by a recent update from Connor Wickham after the striker posted a positive video on social media ahead of the start of pre season following his long battle with injury.
The 25-year-old has failed to feature for the Eagles since sustaining a serious knee injury in November 2016 during a 5-4 defeat to Swansea, but the former Sunderland man is poised to take part in his first pre season in two years.
Wickham had attempted to make a comeback for the club's Under-23 side last season before succumbing to further injury setbacks in training.
