Hull City boss Steve Bruce has revealed that Robbie Brady is in line for a surprise return for this weekend's FA Cup final against Arsenal.
The Irish midfielder has been out of action for three months after undergoing groin surgery back in February.
However, the 22-year-old could now be named in the Tigers squad when they face the Gunners at Wembley Stadium on Saturday.
"Robbie Brady's come from nowhere in the last couple of weeks. It's amazing what an FA Cup final does," Bruce told the Hull Daily Mail.
"We've seen him in training for the first time in six months, so it's been incredible."
Brady joined Hull from Manchester United in January 2013 following two loan spells at the KC Stadium.
