Foster close to WBA return - Pulis

Ben Foster has been sidelined with a knee injury since
March but the West Brom goalkeeper could return by
the end of November.

West Brom manager Tony Pulis revealed number one
goalkeeper Ben Foster is edging closer to a return from a knee
injury.

Foster suffered a setback in his comeback from a damaged
cruciate knee ligament injury that has sidelined him since
March, with Pulis initially ruling out the Englishman until
Christmas.

However, Pulis now believes the 32-year-old international could
return by the end of November.

"Ben is hopefully on the grass next week, that's getting closer
for us," said Pulis, ahead of Saturday's Premier League hosting
of Leicester City.

"I don't think people have mentioned it as often as they could
have, in respect to missing such an influential player - and an
influential player in the dressing room as well.

"It's been a little bit of a setback but the lads have coped very
well with it."
