American midfielder Benny Feilhaber has returned to training with Danish club AGF Aarhus after treatment for an ankle injury in Brazil.

The club said the 25-year-old from UCLA, who was born in Brazil, spent several weeks recuperating on the beaches in Rio de Janeiro.

Team doctor Jens Bo Vestergaard Jorgensen said "things look really good with Benny."

He says he was surprised by Feilhaber's quick recovery and the 25-year-old midfielder will join full squad practice next week.

Feilhaber injured his ankle Feb. 15 while training with Aarhus. He has two goals in 31 international appearances, playing in all five U.S. games at last year's Confederations Cup.
