Gera recovers from Achilles injury

West Bromwich Albion have been boosted by the news that midfielder Zoltan Gera should be fit for their trip to Fulham on Saturday.

The 33-year-old was forced off during Hungary's 5-0 win over Andorra on Friday with an Achilles problem.

There had been fears that Gera would be kept out of action for a long time with the injury, however he has already returned to training with his national side and is expected to be fit for Tuesday's clash with Holland.

"His condition is much better, he was training with the team on Sunday," Hungary's team doctor Gyorgy Szilagyi told origo.hu.

"Theoretically he's ready to play but of course this will be decided by the coach."

Gera has been capped 74 times at senior international level, scoring 22 goals.
