Bayern Munich forward Sadio Mane trained with the ball for the first time in three months on Wednesday, two weeks before the club’s crucial clash with Paris Saint Germain.
The 30-year-old Mane took part in Tuesday morning’s session, a week after returning to the training ground.
Mane injured a tendon in his leg during his side’s 6-1 win over Werder Bremen in November, requiring surgery and forcing him to miss Senegal’s World Cup campaign in Qatar.
Bayern travel to Paris for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on February 14, with the second leg in Munich on March 8.
Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann earlier said he “wouldn’t mind” the African Player of the Year being available for the first leg.
Mane, who joined Bayern from Liverpool in the summer of 2022, has scored 11 goals in 23 games in all competitions this year.
