Arsenal will soon be boosted by the return of four key players according to manager Arsene Wenger.
Attacker Theo Walcott and young midfielder Serge Gnabry have both been out for lengthy spells with knee injuries while Aaron Ramsey and Mikel Arteta have also been on the sidelines in recent times with hamstring and calf problems respectively.
However, Wenger has reported that all four players are either back training or close to returning which is great news for the north Londoners who have lost Mesut Ozil for around three months.
"Theo is not too far away now. Serge has been out for a long, long time and Theo has also been out for nine months, so it's good to see them back," said Wenger.
"They've worked very hard and they're very dedicated. They are back in the group on a daily basis and that's very good news.
"For Ramsey it's day 13 today (Thursday) and I think it will be day 21 before he is back into training. Arteta may be back with the group late next week."
