It has been revealed that Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is closing on a return from injury.
The England international has been out of action since limping out of the Gunners’ 3-0 defeat away to Sheffield Wednesday in the Capital One Cup last month.
But the former Southampton man has almost fully recovered from his hamstring problem, and revealed that he was doing sprint training at 80-90 per cent intensity.
He said: “The rehab is going well, 80-90 per cent sprints today… looking forward to being back on the pitch soon.”
