The 28-year-old is itching to get back in the fray after a seven-month injury nightmare.

Milan defender Daniele Bonera has admitted his long injury lay-off put him to the test, but is now counting down the days to his comeback.

The ex-Parma man has been sidelined since last May after being diagnosed with acute osteitis pubis that forced him to go through a painstaking recovery process.

Bonera has been working hard with physio Giorgio Gasparin for several months and he is now almost ready to return to action.

“I am really happy,” he enthused in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“It was hard to stay off the field for so long. I want to thank the Milan doctors and the physios for the way they took care of me and in particular Gasparin, who has in fact lived by my side for a few months.

“The signals I am receiving from my body are positive and I am only awaiting the day of my comeback.”
