Newcastle United and Papiss Cisse have reached an agreement that will see the striker return to training with the first-team squad tomorrow.
It is understood that Cisse has agreed to wear the logo of club sponsors Wonga on his shirt despite previously insisting that the company's business activity was against his religious beliefs.
Cisse was excluded from Newcastle's pre-season tour of Portugal after refusing to wear training clothing sporting the Wonga logo.
Talks resumed after the Magpies' first team squad returned to England yesterday, and an agreement has now been reached that is acceptable to both parties.
Cisse is expected to return to the Newcastle squad for Sunday's pre-season friendly at Blackpool.
