Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos could be poised to return for Wednesday's Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain if he receives a painkilling injection for a shoulder injury sustained during Oct. 4's Madrid derby with rivals Atletico.

Having just returned to training, the centre-back is looking to play a part in Wednesday's Group A tilt at Parc des Princes, according to The Guardian.

Ramos aggravated a shoulder injury during the Madrid derby after initially sustaining the blow during a Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk in mid September.

Should Ramos fail to find match fitness, Madrid gaffer Rafa Benitez will likely opt for a centre-back pairing of Nacho and Raphael Varane.
