The Wales centre Gavin Henson is in line to return to action with the Ospreys next week, after nearly six months out with an ankle injury.

The 26-year old took part in a training match with the Ospreys this week behind closed doors and will be considered for next week's Magners League match against Ulster.

"We are very pleased with the progress that Gavin has made," said the Ospreys' coach, Sean Holley.
