Aubameyang (knee) has progressed to gym work roughly two weeks after undergoing meniscus surgery and is expected to resume light running within the next 10 to 14 days, with a return to competitive action targeted for mid-November, according to Oscar Mendez of Nos Diario.
Analysis:Aubameyang is making steady progress in his recovery after undergoing arthroscopic surgery to address a meniscus injury suffered against Betis, having moved beyond the initial rest phase to begin cycling and pool exercises aimed at strengthening his knee. Deportivo La Coruna are taking a cautious approach and don't expect the striker back before the November international break, making the Nov. 22 clash against Alaves a potential return date. The veteran is expected to miss around five league matches, leaving a significant void in the attack after opening the campaign with five goals and two assists across seven appearances. Jonathan Asp-Jensen figures to remain a leading candidate for increased minutes while Aubameyang works his way back to full fitness.
