AMSTERDAM: Former Netherlands international Arjen Robben's comeback has been delayed until next year as the 36-year-old continues to battle with injury, but he is still hoping to play this season.
Robben's much anticipated return to his home town club FC Groningen has proven a disappointment as he has played just 44 minutes in two appearances in the Dutch league this season."It is not yet going as I would like," he told his club's website ."I will use the rest of the year to recover and would really like to be on the field with the team in the New Year and play matches."Whether this will work, I cannot say yet. That we'll see in the coming period.
In June, he announced he had changed his mind and was making a return at his local club, where he had debuted as a professional while still a teenager. However, he went off in the first half of the opening league game against PSV Eindhoven in mid-September.
