Michal Zyro taking Wolves return 'step by step'

The Polish star has been sidelined since April with a cruciate knee ligament injury.

He hopes to start doing light training in January, with April remaining his most likely comeback date.

The 24-year-old said: "We are doing good and are closer to the finish than the beginning

"We have completed 60 per cent of the rehab and look forward to continuing it.

"We will see what happens over the next few months because you never know with an injury like this.

"You have good weeks and bad weeks so you cannot set a timescale.

"Take it step by step each day and that is the best way. It hasn't been easy.

"If you understand you are out for maybe a year it is not good.

"I haven't been out for that long before so I had to learn about the situation and give 100 per cent and be ready for the next stage.

"Football is a beautiful game, but sometimes this happens, and then you have to be strong and fight in every way you can.

"Football is my life, everything I do is for football.

"It has been difficult but I look forward now – what is past is past.

"We are in November and close to January where I might start training and then not long after that be out on the pitch."

Zyro is currently working on strength and conditioning exercises and is building up his muscle power every single day.

He added: "I am doing the Alter G as well and am up to 90 per cent weight bearing this week It won't be long before I can start running and running outside which will be the next stage.

"Every week I progress and every day I build up my muscle power. Hopefully I will come back well.

"I don't have targets, or a time I have to be on the pitch. It is difficult to set that.

"With physiotherapy nobody can tell you for sure what is going to happen when you recover from such a long term injury.

"We will carry on doing everything we can to move forward."
