Aaron Ramsey is yet to return to Nice following the World Cup, according to boss Lucien Favre.
The midfielder started each of Wales' group stage matches against the USA, Iran and England at the global showpiece in Qatar, but Rob Page's men were dumped out at the first hurdle after claiming just one of the nine points on offer. Ramsey's personal performances were also well below his usual standards.
It has been a month since what was Wales' first World Cup campaign in 64 years ended in disappointing fashion, and Nice head coach Favre says Ramsey is yet to return to the club following his time with the national side in the Middle East.

"No, he didn't come back," he said. "I think the World Cup was hard for him to digest. We'll see after.
"No [I haven't spoken to him]. I could, but... There you go. I answered... He was very disappointed with the World Cup. He takes his time to really recover."
Ramsey joined the French outfit in the summer after being released by Juventus following a brief loan stint with Rangers.
The 32-year-old has made 16 appearances in all competitions for the Ligue 1 side, with his sole goal coming on debut against Toulouse in August.
