Samir Nasri returns to full training at Arsenal this week.

The Sunday Mirror says the French international midfielder has been absent so far this season after he broke a leg in pre-season.

But the 22-year-old - signed from Marseille for £15million in July last year - has made such rapid progress in his recovery.

It is reckoned Nasri will take at least a fortnight to reach match fitness - but if he shows enough improvement, he could be included by manager Arsene Wenger in his plans for the Premier League clash with West Ham at Upton Park in two weeks.
