Borriello eyes May return
Tuesday 31 March, 2009

Last season's striking surprise package Marco Borriello is hoping to overcome his thigh problem to feature for Milan in May.

Borriello fired on all cylinders for Genoa last term, earning a switch to the Rossoneri.

But the promising marksman's campaign has been destroyed by injury problems, the most recent of which is a serious thigh complaint.

“I am near the end of the recovery process.” Borriello said on Sportmediaset.

“I am expecting to return to action in May and to play in the final few rounds of the season.

“At the moment I am not feeling any pain and in a week or so I will be able to run properly again.

“I am beginning to see the light. I train six hours per day to ensure that I recover in the best possible manner and to try and make it back before the end of the season.

“It would be a source of great satisfaction for me after being out of the game for such a long time.

“Watching my teammates from the stands has been very difficult and my biggest regret has been not being able to benefit from David Beckham's crosses.

“However, I am thankful that my injury has been treated and I am very happy that my Coach and teammates haven't forgotten me. I'll be back stronger than ever.”
