Fantastic news. Shame about the setback after he should have started training again in September, so finger crossed he'll be fine this time. We could need this kid over the coming months.

Sheyi Ojo hands Liverpool boss Klopp an injury boost
Another Liverpool youngster looks set to hand the Reds an injury boost, with Sheyi Ojo returning to training.
The 19-year-old winger enjoyed a breakout campaign under Jürgen Klopp last season, making 11 appearances after returning on loan from Wolves in January.
But after promising outings at pre-season, Ojo suffered a back injury in the friendly defeat to Roma and has not been available for selection since.
Ojo, who sustained a fracture in his back, was scheduled for a mid-September return but suffered a setback.
He has now hinted he is ready to return to action however, posting a picture on Instagram with his boots on.
His comeback comes a day after Joe Gomez returned to action for the first time in 13 months, playing 45 minutes in a 6-0 behind closed doors friendly against Accrington.
A return to fitness would also be timely for Klopp, who is set to lose the squad’s only other recognised winger, Sadio Mane, to the Africa Cup of Nations in January.
