Walcott back for Arsenal this month

Theo Walcott could be back in action for Arsenal before the end of the month.

Arsenal hope Walcott will be able to play in a couple of Under-21 fixtures after the international break with a view to being involved in the first-team squad again at the end of September.

On Walcott's fitness, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger said: "He's doing well, but we'll respect the time. We have plenty of players who can fill in that role and we will respect the delay.

"The timing with Theo is end of the month to join in again, after the break in full training."
