Arsenal ready to use Santi Cazorla for Champions League tie against Napoli following injury
PLUS: Thomas Vermaelen's also recovering and is set to make his comeback against West Brom in the Capital One Cup
Nearly there: Santi Cazorla is almost ready to return
Arsenal are set to bring Santi Cazorla back for their Champions League clash with Napoli at the Emirates in 10 days’ time.
The Spain star missed the Premier League win at Sunderland and the Champions League victory in Marseille last week with an ankle injury.
He will also miss the next three against Stoke today, at West Brom in the Capital One Cup in midweek and Saturday’s visit to Swansea.
It was initially feared that he would be out until mid-October, but Cazorla now looks set to make his return against the Italians.
Thomas Vermaelen could make his comeback against West Brom.
That news is a welcome relief for Arsene Wenger.
The Arsenal boss has an injury list that includes Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lukas Podolski, Abou Diaby and Yaya Sanogo.
But Sanogo does have an outside chance of playing at The Hawthorns.
