Nigeria international Christian Obodo is successfully recovering from injury and has started individual training, reports the official website of Dinamo Minsk .

Sunday's derby clash against Minsk has come too early for the 28 - year - old central midfielder to be considered for selection by manager Oleg Protasov.

He is expected to return to the pitch in the third round of matches against Dnepr Mogilev if his rehabilitation goes according to plan.

Obodo signed a one -and - a - half - year contract with Dinamo Minsk in the winter transfer market. Since then, he has failed to make his debut in the league or Cup.
