“I feel good, I’ve been training now,” the centre-back said.

“Obviously the injury was a setback club football wise. Internationally I wanted to come into this with a lot of games under my belt with full fitness, but I feel good. I’m back available, been training and I’m looking forward to it.”

When asked if he really want to be in the line up on Friday the centre-back said: “Yeah definitely. Obviously it’s a big game. I’ve done a few sessions now and feel like my fitness is there, so, like I say, I’m available for the game.

“You can do as many rehab sessions as you like, but when you’re not playing that competitive football you can’t build that confidence, especially when it’s an ankle or knee injury.

“So it’s just about more training sessions and games in training, games whenever they come and the confidence will keep going.

“I’m sure it will niggle me for a few weeks and months. I haven’t had one before, but from speaking to players and physios, I’m sure it will be niggling.

“But as long as it’s stable and the pain is bearable then I’m sure I’ll be fine.”
