Everton striker Saha doing everything to accelerate rehab

Louis Saha is doing all he can to be fit for Everton's preseason.

The Liverpool Echo says he has been sleeping in an oxygen chamber in a bid to come back fit and sharp for Everton FC pre-season training next season.

Everton's influential striker missed the last eight games of last season with an ankle injury - and was also troubled by calf and hamstring problems during the campaign.

But two weeks before the Blues report back to Finch Farm, Saha has been preparing for the gruelling pre-season programme at the Camp8 rehab centre near St Raphael in his native France.

Sleeping in an oxygen chamber is just part of the programme that Saha revealed on his Twitter feed yesterday.

Posting a picture of himself with an oxygen mask strapped to his face he tweeted: "That's an oxygen chamber to boost the healing process and recovery after hard training.

"Sleeping in a chamber like M. Jackson. The rehab center Camp8 got a few top machines."
