Mikel Arteta is hopeful Thomas Partey could be fit in time to face Leicester on Saturday while Gabriel Jesus is recovering well from his knee injury.
Partey has not featured in Arsenal's last two matches and was sorely missed in the defeat to title rivals Manchester City. The Gunners managed to scrape past Aston Villa without the Ghanaian midfielder last weekend but his return to the team could be pivotal to their chances of lifting the trophy in May.
Speaking in his press conference on Friday, Arteta admitted Partey was still not fully involved in training as normal, but could make the squad if things go their way. "Thomas hasn’t trained much, but looks like he could be available," the Arsenal boss told reporters. "Let’s see how he trains today."
