Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho could call on Angel Di Maria for Saturday’s La Liga match with city rivals Atletico Madrid, Marca reports.
Di Maria has been out of action for Real since sustaining a hamstring injury in November 6’s 7-1 league mauling of Osasuna.
The former Benfica attacker returned to the training pitch on Friday for an individual practice session and is expected to resume regular squad training in the coming days.
It is not yet certain that Argentina international Di Maria will be match fit in time for Saturday’s match at the Santiago Bernabeu against Atletico, but Madrid are hopeful he will recover in time to feature in the derby.
Di Maria’s team-mates are in preparation for Tuesday’s Champions League Group D home match against Dinamo Zagreb, with progression to the knockout stages already secured.
