Brentford boss Thomas Frank says Bryan Mbeumo is back in training.
The attacker could play again this month.
It's a balance," said Frank. If I see on the training ground that he [Mbeumo] is there - when I see that he is sharp, performing and has got up to the minimum level then it will be about deciding how much he can play.
He's obviously a key player. With the type of injury he had, touch wood, he cannot get a setback.
"It's not a hamstring, for example, where he could provoke it. It's just about fitness and sharpness."
