Europa League: Arsenal receives two injury boost ahead of Sporting Lisbon clash

Arsenal have received a major defensive boost as Nacho Monreal and Sokratis Papastathopoulos returned to training ahead of Europa League clash against Sporting Lisbon.

Monreal had missed Arsenal’s last five matches with a hamstring injury, leaving both Granit Xhaka and Sead Kolasinac to fill in at left-back in the Spaniard’s absence.

Meanwhile, Sokratis has not featured for the Gunners since their 1-0 win away at Sporting Lisbon but the Greek centre-back could be available for the return fixture on Thursday evening.

Both players were seen in the training ground at London Colney on Wednesday morning ahead of a busy schedule for Emery’s side across the winter period.

The Gunners will host Wolves in their next Premier League fixture this weekend before an away trip to Bournemouth and Vorskla Poltava.

Arsenal confirmed on their website that both Monreal and Sokratis will be assessed before the clash with Sporting.
