Southampton striker Jay Rodriguez has been given fresh hope over his return to first-team football after undergoing a successful operation on his foot.
It was expected that the England international was to be out for up to eight weeks with the surgery in mind, with a return in mid-January in the offing, however it looks as though Rodriguez will be back in action faster than first feared.
Sky Sports News HQ have reported that The Saints striker is feeling a lot more positive and is remaining hopeful after his operation was considered a successful one.
The 25-year-old has not featured for Ronald Koeman’s side since mid-October as injuries continue to plague his chances at reviving his playing career, but his potentially quicker return is certain to be a boost for the Dutchman who already has a wealth of attacking talent at his disposal.
Rodriguez signed a five-year-deal with the club in the summer and will hope to make a late impact in the campaign for The Saints.
