However, the 33-year-old has made a successful return to training and looks set to make a timely return as fellow defender Robert Huth is suspended for the return leg with Atletico, who are 1-0 up.

Shakespeare said: “The final decision will be made tomorrow. I need to see if there is no reaction.

“He has trained the last three training sessions in which the intensity has been greater every one.

“I am pleased with how he has progressed. I would like to find out from the player how his thoughts are. But my eyes tell me this morning we both should be fairly pleased how he has come through.”
