Badu, 25 was hospitalised in Ghana, following international break couple of weeks ago after being diagnosed with gastroenteritis (stomach flu).

He couldn’t feature for Udinese in their 2-1 defeat at Juventus but made a cameo appearance in the second half to help his side thrash Pescara 3-1 last weekend.

The Ghana international was happy after the game.

"The past two weeks have been very difficult for me. After the international break with my national team, I faced several setbacks and although I am not back to my full fitness, I think I am getting better," Badu told Udinese TV.

"I wanted to help the team today and we had a good game by defeating Pescara thanks to my teammates, coaches and the supporters," he added.
