Aubameyang (knee) has reached the halfway point of his recovery from meniscus surgery and is targeting a return against Alaves following the November international break, according to Dxt Campeon.
Analysis:Aubameyang is progressing well four weeks after undergoing surgery Sept. 24 to repair a partial tear of the lateral meniscus in his right knee. The veteran striker has stopped using crutches and resumed stationary cycling, with his rehabilitation workload gradually increasing ahead of an eventual return to on-field training. He remains ruled out against Atletico Madrid and Auriense, while the upcoming fixtures against Osasuna and Espanyol are also expected to come too soon, making the Nov. 22 clash against Alaves the most realistic target for his comeback. Aubameyang recorded five goals and two assists across seven league appearances before his injury, and Jonathan Asp-Jensen could continue benefiting from his absence as Deportivo La Coruna take a cautious approach to his recovery.
