Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has shared good news with Football London and confirmed that he has a fully fit squad to pick from ahead of the Premier League restart.
Arsenal have suffered badly with injury this term, with a number of key players sidelined with injury throughout the campaign.
But Arteta has insisted that Arsenal now have no fitness concerns going into their game against Manchester City tomorrow.
“So far everybody is ok,” he said. “We’ll see how training goes tomorrow to pick the right team and the right squad. It’s going to be different with the number of substitutes we have on the bench and the number of changes we can make.
“We have to think about how we can do that.”
Lucas Torreira is likely to be the only Arsenal player to miss out through injury, but even the Uruguayan is making good progress and could yet play again before the end of the season.
Arsenal will be majorly boosted by the returns of a number of players from the treatment table.
Kieran Tierney may well start for Arsenal after shaking off his injury problem on Wednesday.
Bukayo Saka has played at left-back in Tierney’s absence, but the youngster is more comfortable in an advanced role, and the Scot’s return should allow him to play further forward.
Arsenal currently sit in ninth place in the Premier League table, but if they beat City then their top-four hopes could yet be re-ignited.
