Jens Cajuste returns to group training and targets a comeback after a month out

Good news for Málaga CF: Jens Cajuste has rejoined training with the rest of the squad on a progressive, partial basis this Monday, after roughly a month out with a muscle injury. As reported by MARCA, the Swedish midfielder has taken another step in his recovery and is getting closer to a possible call-up.

His return had been pushed back more than expected, but being back in collective work is the first step toward regaining normality. Previously, Juanfran Funes said weeks ago that the problem was not serious, even if it kept him away from action.

Still, Cajuste needs to finish his match fitness work before he can return to competition, and there is no specific date set yet. Málaga trained this Monday at 10:30 at the Ciudad Deportiva Fundación MCF, switching from La Rosaleda to the Anexo to protect the pitch after the winter turf was used in last Friday’s match vs Espanyol.
