Ribery set for Bayern return at Augsburg

The 32-year-old Frenchman endured a miserable 2015 and tore a thigh muscle in mid-December on just his second game back after nine months out with an ankle injury.

Bayern's coach Pep Guardiola has included Ribery in his squad for the league leaders' game at Augsburg and the club tweeted a video of him boarding the team bus.

If he plays, Ribery will be making only his third appearance of the season.

He scored in the Bundesliga at Borussia Moenchengladbach last December, but was then injured in a Champions League game at Dinamo Zagreb on his brief return.
