Oleksandr Zinchenko is edging closer to making his debut with PSV Eindhoven.
The Ukraine winger is on a season-long at PSV from Manchester City, but is yet to feature.
Zinchenko has battled with injury since his arrival in Holland last month.
"I feel good and do not suffer more," said the midfielder. "I hope to be able to play Saturday."
PSV coach Philip Cocu is expected to hand Zinchenko a debut this Saturday against Excelsior.
