Bertrand Traore Injury: Back available against Man United

Traore (knee) is back available for Saturday's clash against Manchester United but is expected to start on the bench, according to coach Regis Le Bris, per Scott Wilson from Thenorthernecho. "I think it's fair to say, now, you have to show more during the training sessions. Maybe then you'll get some minutes and those opportunities will give you credit for the next one. That's more or less how we are working now."

Traore's potential return is an encouraging development after being sidelined since early March in what has been a difficult stretch with injuries since the start of the new year. The forward was unable to earn a place in the matchday squad last weekend despite positive signs earlier in the week, with the club opting to take a cautious approach. Manager Regis Le Bris's latest comments suggest Traore is now in contention for Saturday's fixture, though a bench role appears the most likely scenario given the length of his absence.
