Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has named Henrikh Mkhitaryan in his squad for their clash with Swansea City.

Arsenal make the trip to south Wales on Wednesday looking to close the gap to the top-four places.

Armenia ace Mkhitaryan joined from Manchester United in exchange for Alexis Sanchez last week and is expected to feature at the Liberty Stadium.

Mkhitaryan hasn't played a game since United's FA Cup win over Derby on January 5.

He was taken off at half-time in that tie and will no doubt be itching to return to action.

The Gunners have also been boosted by the return of Olivier Giroud following a hamstring injury.
