After five months off the pitch and multiple operations on his broken foot, Louis Fenton is back in training for Wellington Phoenix.
Fenton, 26, was an outstanding performer for Phoenix last season before he broke two toes in his right foot in March following a clash with Newcastle Jets midfielder Ben Kantarovski.

Club officials were anticipating the full-back – who has suffered a leg break and two shoulder dislocations during his football career – to return in time for Phoenix’s FFA Cup 2019 Round of 32 clash with Brisbane Strikers last Wednesday, having initially posted a recovery time frame of 12 weeks.
However, it appears Fenton’s recovery is nearing completion after Phoenix posted a photo of him jogging next to new recruits Ulises Davila and Jaushua Sotirio on Wednesday.

City jersey pictured at WWE
We all know about the global appeal of the Hyundai A-League.
But even we had to suspend our disbelief at the sight of a Melbourne City kit on show during the WWE.
The official WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) Twitter account posted a picture of the City jersey on screen yesterday, during a clash between Randy Orton and The New Day.
