Osaze Odemwingie could return to full training at Stoke City within a fortnight.

The key man has been out of action since being stretchered out of a 1-0 win at Manchester City in late August with knee ligament damage.

The 33-year-old was expected to miss the rest of the season but he has made good progress in his recovery.

Manager Mark Hughes said in Stoke Sentinel, “Peter’s [Odemwingie] still in with the physios but we’re encouraged by what he’s saying and what the physios are saying.

“Hopefully in the next two to three weeks we may well see him back in the group.

“If he’s back in the group then you’re looking at another couple of weeks before he’s available for selection.

“He’s close to returning and we’re encouraged by that.”

Odemwingie scored five goals as he sparked Stoke’s surge up the table in the second half of last season after joining from Cardiff in a swap deal involving Kenwyne Jones.
