Steaua Bucuresti star Muniru Sulley is making progress in the treatment after picking up a hamstring injury two weeks ago.
The midfielder suffered the setback during the derby clash with Dinamo Bucuresti and was taken off after 33 minutes.
As a result, he missed last week's 3-1 home win over Pandurii Targu Jiu.
The 24-year-old is expected to be back before the winter break.
Sulley has made ten league appearances for the leaders.
