Aleksandar Pavlovic made his long-awaited return from a broken collarbone when he came off the bench in Bayern Munich's 0-1 DFB-Pokal defeat to Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday.
The 20-year-old has since declared himself fully fit and, according to Sky Germany, he's in with a very good chance of starting against Heidenheim on Saturday.
"I'm fully fit again. I have no problems, nothing. I'm very happy," said Pavlovic in an interview with Bild after the loss to Leverkusen.
“I'm doing everything I can to get back into the starting eleven. I'll do my best and we'll see.”
Pavlovic was a regular in the Bayern midfield until he broke his collarbone in October.
With Joao Palhinha sidelined, Leon Goretzka has recently partnered Joshua Kimmich in the middle of the park.
