Marco Silva believes talismanic striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is on his way to recovery ahead of Fulham's Premier League clash against Bournemouth on Saturday.
The Serbia forward has netted six goals for the Cottagers in the Premier League so far this season, already double his total from the 2020-21 top-flight campaign.
However, Mitrovic sustained an injury during the recent international break and did not feature during his side's 3-1 defeat at West Ham last weekend, having come off early against Newcastle on October 1.
Silva admitted he will have to be assessed ahead of Saturday's match.
