Jones returns to training
02.12.2009
Jermaine Jones's injury misery seems to be at an end. The Schalke midfielder, who underwent surgery on a hairline fracture in his left shin at the beginning of pre-season, returned to the training ground on Tuesday afternoon.
Along with rehab and fitness coach Markus Zetlmeisl the 28-year-old did various running drills next to the pitch while his team-mates trained with the ball. And Jones was clearly delighted to be back.
His injury woes had appeared to be over when he resumed training back in September, but he was eventually forced to postpone his comeback attempt due to soreness in his leg. The metal plate that was inserted during the initial operation at the end of June was then removed in October.
