CRYSTAL Palace attacking midfielder Andre Moritz is set to return to training, two to four weeks ahead of schedule from injury.
The Brazilian suffered an ankle injury against Huddersfield Town at the end of January and initially was thought to be out for up to two months.
But four weeks on, the 27-year-old has announced on his Twitter page he hopes to be playing again as soon as possible.
He tweeted: "I need to be thankful to all the staff for the treatment and the support during that hard time, back in 4 weeks when the docs said 6-8...We know how hard and painful was these four weeks and second the supporters who tweeted me giving me strength to keep my chin up Thank u all."
The news will be a timely boost for Ian Holloway, who will need as many of his players fit and ready for the Championship run-in towards promotion.
