Adam Nagy could be set to play for Hungary in the international break.
The Bristol City midfielder has been out injured since picking up an injury in the win over QPR on August 17 and it was initially feared the 24-year-old would be out for some time.
Whilst it seems a little soon for the Robins' game against Middlesbrough this weekend, manager Lee Johnson is optimistic about having him back in action for City after the international break.
He said: "Adam's looking pretty good, I'm pleased with that one. He's moving a lot better now, he's not so ginger in the way he walks and to touch the ankle's not so bad.
"He's been called up by the Hungary national side as well and he's keen to play in that.
"We'll have a look at him tomorrow on the grass it may well be a little bit too soon this Saturday, but the plan is in Hungary's qualifiers to have him ready for that second game and then back for our game against Stoke."
Nagy has so far played in three games for City since joining from Bologna, scoring one goal.
