Toon manager Eddie Howe said: "He’s in a good place. He’s had a little bit of time away from the club due to his injury.
"He has gone to seek treatment elsewhere but we don’t envisage his injury to be a big one and we hope he will be back, if not before the international break then after the international break, ahead, I think he is in the best frame of mind that I have seen him for a few months. I think he’s in a really good place currently."
