U.S. midfielder Clint Dempsey is reportedly making the trip with his club team Fulham tomorrow to Torino, Italy for a Europa League match against Juventus.
It doesn't really matter if he plays or not tomorrow (sorry Fulham), the bigger point is that Dempsey is recovering right on pace for the 2010 World Cup. He predicted he'd be back playing for Fulham in mid-March so that proves that he's been doing more during his rehab than banging his smokeshow wife (see: Sports Illustrated's latest swimsuit issue).
Dempsey had been having his best season with Fulham, notching six goals and three assists before getting hurt against Blackburn on January 17th.
He should be fully recovered and match fit by June so you can stop worrying about him and deflect that to the other injured Americans: central defender Oguchi Onyewu, striker Charlie Davies and midfielder Stuart Holden are also currently sidelined.
