Sevilla manager Garcia Pimienta has said Chidera Ejuke will soon be at his best again.
Ejuke sustained a hamstring injury in a league match against Barcelona last October, and was sidelined for around four months.
The winger recently returned to action for the former European champions.
The Nigeria international has however struggled to hit top form since recovering from the injury.

Pimienta said it is important to give the player more time to recover from the injury.
“Ejuke has played four games and perhaps he is not showing his best version, but he is part of the process after a serious injury” he told the club’s official website.
“We have to be patient with him because he trains phenomenally and I am convinced that he will end up getting to that best version.”
The 27-year-old has scored once in 13 league appearances for Sevilla this season.
The Rojiblancos will be up against Real Valladolid in a LaLiga clash on Sunday.
