Reading midfielder Aaron Tshibola says he expects to start pre-season with his team-mates following six months out.
The 21-year-old underwent hamstring surgery in February after being forced off 10 minutes into his comeback from injury.
Tshibola played regularly under former boss Steve Clarke until picking up a serious ankle injury last October.
"I'm en-route to being back on track when the rest of the boys are back in," said Tshibola.
"It's all positive now. Next season is a big one for myself and everyone at the club.
"The main focus for me now is to keep ticking over and make sure I have a good pre-season," he told the club website. , external
