Coventry City midfielder Sammy Clingan could return for the Sky Blues trip to Queens Park Rangers on Saturday November 28th.
Speaking to Sky Blues Player, the Northern Irishman who suffered a broken metatarsal against Leicester City said: "The Crystal Palace game might come a bit soon for me but I think QPR could be a realistic target
"It's not been easy having to be in the gym and sitting in the stands and watching the lads play, especially considering they've had a couple of bad results because I just want to get out there and help my teammates.
"My foot's been a bit sore to run on for too long at the moment but the important thing is not to rush back because I could end up letting the lads down by not performing as well as I can and I could also worsen the damage so I have to be patient but it is difficult.
"I just want to get back fit again and hopefully help the lads out as much as I can."
