Real Madrid defender Pepe is back in training following more than six months on the sidelines and looks set to be ready to play for Portugal at this summer's World Cup.

Pepe has been out since December with a serious knee injury which saw him miss the rest of the domestic season with Real, but trained with his team-mates on Saturday.

Atletico Madrid midfielder Tiago also returned to training after picking up an injury in last week's disappointing 0-0 draw at home to Cape Verde.
