Eduardo: I'll be playing football in July

Just three months after the horror tackle from Martin Taylor that left him with a double compound leg break, Gunners star Eduardo is pictured KICKING a football as part of his rehab in Brazil.
And, incredibly, the Croatia striker claims he could be back in action as early as JULY.
The images were broadcast on Brazilian TV and show just how much progress Eduardo has made since he was left writhing in agony at Birmingham on February 23. He later told Croatian newspaper Sportske Novosti: "I am returning to Europe from Brazil at the beginning of August, perhaps even the end of July.
"Doctors tell me by then Iwill be fully recovered and able to play football again.
"I hope so too. I'm feeling well and my rehabilitation is going better than I would ever have hoped. I'm working hard every day."
Eduardo has been following a gruelling rehab programme with Brazillian national team physio Odir de Souza.
