Castan to return to training

By Football Italia staff

There’s good news for Roma, as Leandro Castan is set to return to training next week following brain surgery.



The Brazilian defender was diagnosed with a cavernoma in November, a malformation of the brain which required surgery.



The surgery was successful, but it was thought Castan would be unable to return this season. However, according to Sky the 28-year-old will return to training at Trigoria next week.



The news represents a significant boost for Castan, who only underwent surgery a month and a half ago, and could see him return to the pitch before the end of the season.
