St Johnstone playmaker Graham Carey expected back in training this week

Graham Carey is expected to return to St Johnstone training this week.

The creative midfielder picked up a knee injury last month and has not featured since.

But manager Callum Davidson has confirmed the Perth playmaker is now closing in on a first team comeback.

He said: “We’re hoping Graham will be back in training this week, which is obviously great news.

“We had to wait until the swelling went down. He had damaged the ligaments a bit, which has taken time to heal.

“Graham’s an experienced pro who knows his body.

“The knee wasn’t right but it’s feeling a lot better now. He’s chomping at the bit to get back.

“We brought him in for the quality he’s got in attacking areas and what he can do from set-pieces.

“You take a lot out of your team when you lose Graham so it will be great to have him back.”
