Manchester City midfielder Oscar Bobb has returned to training after five months out with a fractured leg.
The Norway international sustained the injury in training on the eve of the Premier League season.
It has prevented Bobb, 21, from featuring in the Premier League this season, having played for 89 minutes in the Community Shield in August.
While the Norwegian will not be available for Saturday’s FA Cup third round tie against Salford City (17:45 GMT), Guardiola is delighted Bobb has stepped up his recovery.
“Oscar is training already with the team – partial,” said Guardiola.
“It’s not muscular, it was a bone and it’s already fixed. It’s good news that he’s back.”
The Spaniard confirmed defender Ruben Dias is feeling “better” but is not yet ready to return, while John Stones also remains out.
Brazil goalkeeper Ederson, who has not featured since the 2-1 defeat by Manchester United at the Etihad on 15 December, has returned to full fitness.
