Two weeks after his suspension, Amine Harit is apparently allowed to return to the lawn.
As the "Bild" reports, Bundesliga club Schalke 04 pardoned the midfielder.
Accordingly, the 23-year-old Moroccan will be able to train with the team again from Wednesday.
Harit was again excluded from the team in November together with Nabil Bentaleb after he was substituted in the game against VfL Wolfsburg before half-time and disappeared straight into the dressing room.
Those in charge of Schalke spoke of a "pause for thought" - which has now apparently ended.
Manuel Baum had recently announced that he would discuss the case internally "the day after the game against Leverkusen".

On the one hand, Schalke's coach, who has many injuries to complain about, can give any player who is ready to play.
Because the bottom of the table in the Bundesliga is slowly but surely losing touch with the non-relegation places.
Is there a reinforcement?
On the other hand, a premature return of the undisciplined professional also diminishes the signaling effect of the suspension within the club.
It is also questionable to what extent Harit can really help the team in his current condition.
However, it was already clear when he was expelled that there was a way back for the offensive player.
"We will not drop Amine, but together we will do everything we can to bring him back to the point where he can bring his qualities to our club", said sports director Jochen Schneider after the suspension.
Harit's contract had been extended to 2024 after a strong first half of the season in 2019/2020.
Since then, good performances by the dribbling midfielder have been the exception.
