Frutos working on return

For the first time in months Nicolas Frutos has trained with the ball. "I still feel pain," says the striker in Het Nieuwsblad. "Doctors say that's normal though, so I am not too worried."


"It's not a severe pain, but an annoying one. I want to work on my return step by step. The doctors have told me I will return stronger."

During the Argentinian's absence, the team has at times struggled to find the goal. Frutos is troubled by not being able to play. "It's frustrating having to miss the European games against Fenerbahçe and Rapid Wien." Frutos is expected to return in October. "I don't want to put an exact date on it. I am doing everything to return as soon as possible."
