Bayern München star Lucas Hernandez hopes to be able to return to full training in January.

The 23-year-old is making good progress in his recovery from the ankle injury that has kept him out since the end of October.

"I'm getting better. I'll probably need about 10 days before I can slowly start to make my return to the team. My goal is to participate fully in the preparations for the second half of the season and be able to help the team again by mid or late January," Hernandez told Spox.

Hernandez has played nine games for Bayern this season.
