Arsene Wenger has confirmed that Abou Diaby could feature for Arsenal in their final games in the current Premier League season.
The French international returned to training last week following a year-long absence with knee ligament damage.
The manager told the club's website: "He is back in full training now and available to play. He might play a part of the game for the Under-21s.
"He hasn't played for a year but physically he is ready to play, completely. It is now just decision-making, getting used to challenges again. He needs a game."
Arsenal have matches against Newcastle United, West Bromwich Albion and Norwich City still to come before the end of the season.
