Ben Foster returns to training

West Bromwich Albion have been handed a boost ahead of the new season after Ben Foster returned to training.

The 32-year-old goalkeeper has been out of action since suffering a cruciate ligament injury in March, and despite not being expected to be available until October, Foster's progress will come as good news to Baggies boss Tony Pulis.
