Report: Bayern defender close to returning to training
TZ reports that Hiroki Ito is aiming to return to training before the end of September.
After joining Bayern Munich from Stuttgart for €23.5 million in the summer, Hiroki Ito suffered a metatarsal fracture in pre-season and has been sidelined ever since.
However, the Japanese defender appears to be making good progress in his recovery.
According to TZ, Ito hopes to resume training before the end of the month.
Either way, the 25-year-old will definitely need time to get up to full speed and become an option for playing time.
