While speaking to CNN, the Greece-based defender said he would be happy if he could a part before the end of the season but if not he would return in May.
“I should be back and fit again in May, but I think it’s probably season over. You never know how rehab will go but I don’t want to rush it because, at my tender age of 30, you have to be smart about these injuries.
“I want to be 100% for next season, 100% right. If I can play at the end of this season that’s great, if not then I will be ready for next season”, he said.
