ARJEN Robben should be fit for Bayern Munich's first Bundesliga fixture of 2010 next Friday as the injury he picked up in training yesterday is not as bad as first feared.
The Dutchman limped out of training after twisting his ankle and it was feared he may face another lengthy lay-off.
But the club confirmed on their official website his involvement against Hoffenheim "is not in any danger."
Robben underwent tests last night and Bayern doctor Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt revealed Robben had only pulled his tendon and needs only to tread lightly for the next four days.
He spent this morning's training session in the hotel swimming pool aqua-jogging.
Franck Ribery, meanwhile, returned to full training today for the first time in more than a week, although he has already been ruled out of the Hoffenheim game.
