Franck Ribery is making progress in his recovery from a recurring knee injury and may return to action before the Bundesliga winter break, his Bayern Munich team doctor Hans-Wilhelm Mueller-Wohlfahrt said. France star Ribery last played in early October and has been sidelined since. Munich said last week that he won't require an operation as conservative methods are being applied
"We will treat him for a month and then we will see. We are on a good way," Mueller-Wohlfahrt said in interviews published on Monday in several German papers.
The doctor added that "you can never fully rule it (an operation) out, but the treatment is working. Therefore he doesn't need an operation." A French doctor said last week that Ribery will need four weeks of treatment and four weeks rehabilitation training.
Ribery will miss further Bundesliga matches and the French World Cup play-offs with Ireland in mid-November, but could be back just before the Bundesliga starts its winter break on December 20.

Quote Of The Week
"It`s a great honour for me to be voted as winner of the Ballon d`Or and to become the first Argentine in history to receive this award, I knew I was among the favourites, because Barca have had a prolific year and we won everything, but I didn`t expect to win it by such an important margin. The Ballon d`Or is something very important for me. All those who won it were great players and some great players never won it."

Did You Know
Alessandro Del Piero has captained Italy seven times (including the world cup in 2006 and Euro 2008). He also regularly wore the number 10, but later gave it to Francesco Totti and switched to the number 7, as it was the first number he wore at the start of his career. Even though the number 10 was vacated after Totti retired from the national team in July 2007, Del Piero denied any interest in taking back the number, saying he was satisfied with the number 7. On May he was recalled by popular demand to Italy`s UEFA Euro 2008 squad after nine-month absence from international duty, and thus became the second Italian player to participate in 7 major international tournaments (EURO 1996, 2000, 2004, 2008; World Cup 1998, 2002, 2006).
