Some Arsenal fans on Twitter are delighted to see Bukayo Saka back in full training.

The Gunners take on Aston Villa at the Emirates Stadium tonight.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta suggested in his press conference that the 20-year-old winger might not be available.

Saka took a wallop to his calf from James McArthur in the 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace earlier in the week.

But the England international was spotted in Arteta’s training session on Thursday, which took place after the media briefing.

And here’s how some Arsenal fans reacted to seeing him take part in the session:

Cracking news

This is very much a big boost for Arsenal.

Arteta’s side aren’t exactly thriving in the Premier League this season, sitting 12th in the table after eight games.

But Saka, who earns £30,000 per week in North London, is undeniably one of their best players.

And therefore, the odds of Arsenal winning increase if he’s available which, as mentioned, he may not be.

Arteta certainly didn’t seem confident during the press conference, but the fact that he trained and seemed to get through it okay is definitely a good sign.
