Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that Tomas Rosicky could return to training next week following a thigh injury.
The midfielder, 32, has been sidelined since September 10 when he suffered the problem while on international duty with the Czech Republic.
"Next week we will start to speak about [his return]," Wenger told the club's official website. "He could come back in the squad for Sunday or Monday."
Rosicky has made four appearances in all competitions for Arsenal this season.
