Moussa Niakhate has returned to the training field ahead of Nottingham Forest's clash with Fulham this Saturday.
The 26-year-old has been out of action since August after suffering an injury in only his second appearance for the club.
Last week, head coach Steve Cooper confirmed that the centre-back was in the final stages of rehab. "They are still at the latter stages of rehab," Cooper said of Niakhate and Omar Richards.
