Tom Lees began full training again on Friday following his lengthy injury lay-off.
Lees has been out since the end of January with a knee problem but Carlos Carvalhal confirmed that the central defender has resumed training, albeit with a few restrictions, and hopes he will back in action in the near future.
Carvalhal also confirmed that Lees had suffered a setback early in his fight to regain fitness but believes the player is now well on the way to recovery.
