West Bromwich Albion forward Saido Berahino is close to making his return to action following fitness problems.
Berahino, 23, has not played since September and last month the Baggies ruled he was unfit and overweight before placing him on a personal fitness regime.
But Berahino has returned to full training and Tony Pulis is hopeful the striker is almost ready.
"I had a good chat with Saido yesterday, he looks brighter and sharper," Pulis said. "Fitness-wise we're pleased, he's getting there. The next step is to get him some games, which we'll try and do over the next two weeks.
