Crystal Palace striker Glenn Murray has revealed that he is on course for an early New Year return to action.

The forward suffered a knee ligament injury in May, which required surgery to fix.

However, despite having undergone a further procedure recently, the 30-year-old has insisted that it should not prevent him from returning in January.

"Had a clean out of my knee around a month ago but shouldn't make much difference to my return date. Feels good," he wrote on Twitter.

Murray joined the Eagles from Brighton & Hove Albion in 2011.
