Crystal Palace winger Yannick Bolasie has claimed that he is closing in on full fitness following a hip injury.
The 26-year-old, who started on the bench for last weekend's 3-2 defeat to West Bromwich Albion, missed almost two months of game time in the Premier League.
"Pretty much [back to 100% fitness]," Bolasie told the club's official website. "It's a case of getting match fitness for myself now. I feel strong and I feel all right. Now the hardest thing is match fitness.
"I was just concentrating on trying to come back earlier than the date that was scheduled for me to come back."
Palace are currently 14th in the Premier League table.
