Hummels resumes training ahead of Atletico clash
Mats Hummels seems ready to take on Atletico Madrid after shaking off a knee injury he suffered in Bayern Munich's win over HSV.
Bayern Munich have received a boost ahead of Wednesday's Champions League trip to Atletico Madrid, with Mats Hummels returning to training.
The Germany international suffered a knee injury in Bayern's 1-0 Bundesliga win over Hamburg at the weekend and was doubtful for the trip to Spain's capital.
But Bayern have now announced the centre-back has already returned to the training pitch and is ready to take on Atletico.
However, head coach Carlo Ancelotti will still be without defender Holger Badstuber and Brazil winger Douglas Costa at the Vicente Calderon due to injury.
