Rob Page says there is a "strong probability" that Joe Allen will be with Wales at the World Cup next month.
The midfielder missed the Nations League matches against Belgium and Poland in September after suffering a hamstring injury during Swansea City's 3-0 triumph over Hull City in the final game before the international break.
He had been expected to return to action before the end of October, although, having watched Swansea's 2-0 derby triumph over Cardiff City from the dugout on Sunday, Allen went to see a specialist in London this week to get a full update on his situation after suffering a setback.
