Tottenham Hotspur manager Andre Villas-Boas has revealed that he has been encouraged by Younes Kaboul's return to training after injury.
Kaboul has not featured for Spurs since he suffered a recurrence of a knee injury on the opening day of the season, but after a couple of failed comeback attempts, Villas-Boas believes that the French defender could be fit enough to return in April.
The 35-year-old boss told reporters: "He has trained the last two days 100% with the team.
"He is going to rest on Friday and next week, he is going to come back and train again with the team.
"If he doesn't feel any pain, it can mean he will be match fit in 10 days if it all goes without interruption. But we have to be careful because it is a very sensitive situation for him."
The versatile defender also missed Euro 2012 with a knee problem.
