If he's back training with the rest of the squad by the end of the month, like we hope, he has a good chance. "It will be good for the team spirit to have him back. Not only will it give the side a lift, it will also make those who are playing work even harder to stay in the team." So early April is a safe(ish) bet and it's possible he'll be available for both CL games. --
