QPR midfielder Alejandro Faurlin has returned to full training following his long-term knee injury.

The popular Argentine, 27, has been sidelined since rupturing his cruciate ligament against Derby last November.

It was the second time in as many years he suffered cruciate damage – he spent most of 2012 on the sidelines.

He will train with the rest of the Rangers squad ahead of this weekend’s play-off final against the Rams and is likely to be part of the group that travels to Wembley, but is not expected to feature in the game.

Faurlin’s QPR contract expires this summer and the club have indicated that he will be offered a new deal.
