Midfielder Gershon Koffie has returned to full-scale training for New England Revolution ahead of their visit to Chicago Fire on Sunday in the MLS.
Koffie missed the last three matches for the Revs after an ankle injury.
His availability and that of Jose Goncalves is a huge boost for head coach Jay Heaps.
''We needed some time to get them back on the field,'' Heaps said.
''We started this week with them on the field, so we'll see how the week progresses.
''But it was a good couple days for the guys to kind of reset, recalibrate and rest, and be ready for a big game against Chicago.''
