• It was all smile at training as Ghana international Baba Rahman resumed training after recovering from an injury
• The Reading left fill-back got injured on February 19 this year during his side's 3-2 win over Preston North End

Reading defender Abdul Baba Rahman has resumed training ahead of their Championship game against Barnsley on Saturday.

The Ghanaian left-back has been on the sidelines since February after suffering a knee injury while in action for his club in the English Championship.

As a result of the injury, Rahman was dropped from the Black Stars squad that faced Nigeria in the play-offs of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Ghana qualified for the Mundial after they edged their West African rivals in a nail-biting World Cup last round qualifiers staged over two legs.

Rahman, who has made 24 appearances for Reading this season, has now returned to Hogwood Park Training Ground at Reading ahead of this weekend's fixture at Oakwell.
