UNITED: Foster set for return

On-loan United keeper Ben Foster hopes to make his return from knee surgery for Watford in the next 10 days.

/noticias.info/ The 23-year-old stopper has been in outstanding form for the Hornets in his second successive season on loan at Vicarage Road.

A troublesome knee injury saw Foster withdrawn at half-time of Watford's defeat at Portsmouth on November 18, but he is now back in training after a successful operation.

"The knee is much better," he told Kenilworth Today. "I had surgery three-and-a-half weeks ago, so I've managed to restart training this week.

"I'm hoping to be back for the game with Liverpool next week but Arsenal on Boxing Day might be a more realistic target."

Foster made no attempt to hide his frustration at having an enforced six-week break from his first season of Premiership football.

"It's been massively frustrating having to sit it out. After all, I'm a footballer and playing football is my job so I've been fed up," he said.

"I've still had plenty to do to make sure I get back as soon as possible. I've been at the training ground having treatment most days and having ice packs on the knee. I've also been doing all I can to keep fit." notas_de_prensa_archivo
