Ex Ghana striker Junior Agogo is making tremendous strides in his recovery from a stroke suffered over two months ago at his base in England.

The 35-year-old has been hospitalized over the period since being hit with the illness.

Agogo is however now able to walk on his own and has already begun working out at his gym.

The former Nottingham Forest hitman posted his first picture since being hospitalized on Wednesday.

Agogo was Ghana's poster boy between 2006 and 2009 when he starred for the Black Stars – especially during the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations hosted on home soil.
