Arsenal national team captain and Arsenal midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan could make his return from injury in Arsenal’s Europa League semi-final against Atletico Madrid on Thursday, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said on Thursday, according to Sky Sport.
It is noted that the 29-year-old suffered knee ligament damage during the first leg of the Gunners’ quarter-final win over CSKA Moscow but is nearing a return to action.
“Mkhitaryan is running again,” Wenger said, adding “He has to progress in the next three of four days to see how much intensity he can have in his training sessions. Next Thursday is the earliest date for his return.”
