David de Gea could reportedly hand Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal a boost by being available for Saturday evening's trip to Arsenal.
It had been speculated that the goalkeeper would spend the next four weeks on the sidelines with the dislocated finger that he suffered on international duty last week.
However, the complaint has improved over recent days, so much so that the 24-year-old now has an 80% chance of being declared fit to play at the Emirates Stadium, according to the Daily Mail.
Van Gaal has a number of injury concerns ahead of the clash in North London, with the club's official website having reported today that up to 12 players, including Angel di Maria, Daley Blind and Radamel Falcao, could be unavailable.
