Finnish legend given the all-clear
Fulham have confirmed Jari Litmanen is back in training following his heart scare last week.
The Finnish legend had been working on his fitness with The Cottagers with a view to breaking into Roy Hodgson's first team when he experienced 'palpitations'.
Litmanen was immediately sent to a specialist in order to ascertain the extent of the problem and told to rest in order to recuperate.
All-clear
Fulham have confirmed the 37-year-old has been given the all-clear and is now back training with Hodgson's squad.
"He did have some minor palpitations and I suppose you can call that a heart scare but he had everything checked out, there was nothing serious and he went back to Finland for a few days," said a Fulham spokesman.
"He is back again now - out there training."
