Sheffield United midfielder Michael Tonge is poised for a return
to action after well over a month on the sidelines.
The 23-year-old schemer has not featured for the Blades since the
2-0 home defeat by Chelsea on October 28, having sustained both
ankle and knee injuries.
However, Tonge was close to earning a place in the squad for the
2-2 draw with Aston Villa on Monday and is in contention for the
weekend clash with Wigan Athletic.
Boss Neil Warnock confirmed: "There's a good chance Michael will be
involved at Wigan. He's down for selection anyway.
"He could have been involved on Monday, but I thought it was a
little bit too soon."
Tonge has been with the Blades for more than six years and has
scored 21 goals in 225 appearances for the Bramall Lane club.
