NEWCASTLE UTD MAD
CONTACT US (Kev): Kevnumad@fsmail.net
The 24-year-old damaged his shoulder during a pre-season friendly at Carlisle on July 17, and was due to resume full training last week.
However, a slight calf problem put back his progress and he will now resume on Monday.
Taylor, who is out of contract at the end of the season and is yet to agree a new deal, has been transfer-listed by the club.
The defender is represented by Paul Stretford, whose clients also include Wayne Rooney, the man currently at the centre of an astonishing public wrangle with Manchester United.
Everyone is pointing the finger at Stretford for wrongly advising Rooney to start a public war with Man Utd, and we are familiar with his style at St James' Park, where he has done the same between Taylor and Newcastle.
A section of Toon fans have gone against a player who was always popular at the club, and this is not doing anyone any good - Taylor, the club or the fans.
Chris Hughton: "He will start training on Monday and then for him, it will be very much how quickly he can get through.
"He has done a lot of cardio-vascular work and his rehab, but it was just slowed down a little bit last week.
"He had a slight problem with his calf, which he has come through, so we are just looking to see what progress he can make from Monday onwards."
