Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl says Tino Livramento could avoid knee surgery.
Livramento has missed Saints’ last two games due to a meniscus problem.
The 19-year-old, whose return date remains unknown, is being assessed on a daily basis and has not suffered any further setbacks ahead of Tuesday’s Premier League clash with Brentford.
“The first steps in training now have shown no reaction from the knee,” said Hasenhuttl, whose son was sidelined for a year with a meniscus injury.
“This is good, no new fluid, and that gives us a little bit of hope.
“But he’s still not in team training, so we will have a look from day to day.”
