Barcelona central defender and Argentinian international Gabriel Milito (28) returned to Barcelona earlier this week and has started training at Barcelona's new training complex.

Catalan sports paper Sport claims that Milito is expected to join the group training at the end of March, although Barcelona doesn't want to rush the recovery and gives the player all the time that is needed. Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that Milito could already join the rest of the squad in one month time.

Milito suffered a right knee injury on 29 April 2008 during the second game of the Champions League semi-finals against Manchester United last season. He was operated on 13 May 2008. The predicted recovery time was then being estimated between six and nine months.
