Real Madrid winger Wesley Sneijder has fully recovered from the knee injury he picked up during pre-season, coach Bernd Schuster said on Saturday.

The Dutch international was expected to face three months on the sidelines after sustaining the problem during Real’s friendly against Arsenal.

But Sneijder handed the Spanish champions a major boost by returning earlier than expected. He is in line to feature in Real’s Primera Liga clash against Espanyol on Sunday.

“It's impossible to stop him, if I do not call him he will shoot me twice,” Schuster was quoted as saying by Spanish daily Marca.

“Wesley train these past ten days is frightening, he has recovered perfectly. It's impossible not to call him, he is working very well.

“I will give Sneijder minutes, we will see how many, but at least 45.”

The 24-year-old has been called up to Holland’s squad for upcoming World Cup qualifying matches against Iceland and Norway.
