However, after attending Cardiff's 2-1 win over Reading in south Wales on Wednesday night, El Ghazi returned to the Netherlands to be with his partner.
"His wife is pregnant, they are expecting a baby. I hope everything will be OK," Bulut told 大象传媒 Sport Wales.
"He will be back, I think, on Monday to training and then we can start to work.
"He has trained on his own, but it's not the same as team training, so he needs a little bit (of time).
"We have to be patient with him."
