Arsenal are boosted by news that Nacho Monreal and Sokratis have both returned to full training.

As the Gunners prepare for a Europa League game against Sporting CP, they will have more defenders to pick from.

Boss Unai Emery is not expected to rotate his squad too much for the game.

The only youngsters who were part of training were Emile Smith Rowe and Eddie Nketiah.

Club captain Laurent Koscielny also participated, but it is unclear when he will get a proper runout in a game.
