Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, will welcome back two members of the first team squad this weekend as they return to fitness after short-term knocks.
According to reports from Goal.com, midfielder Francis Coquelin and summer signing, Lucas Perez are both set to make a return to the squad when the Gunners host Swansea at The Emirates on Saturday.
Perez, who made the move to North London from Deportivo La Corona in the latter stages of the summer window, missed the late win over Burnley at Turf Moor after picking up a knee problem in training prior to the game, however, he has recovered over the international break.
French midfielder, Coquelin will return a lot quicker than expected after he sustained a worrying knee injury in the 3-0 win over Antonio Conte’s Chelsea.
However, the 25-year-old’s return presents a dilemma for Wenger, who has to decided between Coquelin and Swiss sensation, Granit Xhaka, who has been impressing in his absence.
Furthermore, right-back Hector Bellerin is reportedly fit after picking up an ankle problem late on in Spain U21’s win over San Marino last week.
