The Bayern Munich defender is confident that he will return to action in the next few weeks to play a part in the concluding games of the season.
Van Buyten suffered a broken metatarsal in the game against Borussia Monchengladbach in January. It was Bayern’s first fixture after the winter break which the visitors eventually lost courtesy a brace from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Patrick-Herrmann-c29275 and
a goal from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Reus-c23733.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 international underwent a surgery after the match and has since been on a steady road to recovery. The player has started basic training and may be available at the end of next month to play a part for his side.
Buyten recalled the seriousness of the injury and revealed that he was not able to walk for almost seven weeks. The defender admitted that he has lost a lot of weight and would start running from the next week so a return is nearing.
“I wasn't able to walk for almost seven weeks, and I even weigh less than 60 kg now, so my recovery is still going to take some time. I'm doing all I can to return as soon as possible, and I hope to play a game or two before the
end of the season,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The former Hamburg player insisted that he is eager to return to football and is hopeful of steady recovery. He admitted that it would have been great if he was able to face Olympique Marseille in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final
next week but it would surely be an impossible task.
Buyten revealed that he might travel with the team to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 for the fixture as he can continue to train with the first team but the decision is yet to be made.
“I really wanted to play there, but I know it's impossible. I might travel with the group, but it depends whether I can train there. Let's wait and see,” he concluded.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Van-Buyten-c10095 has made a total of 133 league appearances for Bayern Munich since joining from Hamburg in 2006. The player has scored 19 goals in the process.
