Bristol City defender Tomas Kalas appears to be closing in on a first-team return having taken part in a full training session on Tuesday as the Robins prepare to take on Sunderland this weekend.
Kalas hasn’t played since March 5, missing the final 10 games of last season and underwent groin surgery before sustaining an undisclosed secondary problem over the summer, which limited his involvement in pre-season.
The Czech Republic international joined the squad in Austria for their training camp but didn’t appear in any of their friendlies and manager Nigel Pearson has been reluctant to place a timeframe on his return.
