Super Eagles striker returns to group training at West Brom after  two months on the sidelines 

West Brom have been handed an injury boost ahead of their first game after the last international break of the season.

In the latest training images published by the Baggies on their official website on Wednesday, November 22, Nigeria international striker Josh Maja was pictured training with the group. 

Maja's rehabilitation went according to plan as the timeline for his recovery was put at eight weeks.

The Fulham and Sunderland academy product has not featured for the Baggies since September 16 when he tore his ankle ligaments in the final moments of the goalless draw at Bristol City. 

Maja was all smiles as he posed for the cameras during the latest workout, suggesting that he is now in good health, but it remains to be seen whether or not he will be named in the game day squad to face Ipswich Town this coming Saturday.

The Super Eagles star was unavailable for ten straight games in the Championship as he recovered from the injury. 

Maja joined West Brom as a free agent in the summer transfer window, signing a three-year contract after opting not to extend his stay at French second tier club Bordeaux. 

Maja's compatriot, Semi Ajayi was not spotted in any of the training pictures shared by West Brom after international commitments with the Super Eagles in World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Zimbabwe.
