Lucas Perez is edging closer to a first team return after partaking in a light session at first team training ahead of the match with PSG.

The Spaniard suffered ankle ligament damage just over a month ago in the 2-0 EFL Cup win over Reading and subsequently missed the matches with Sunderland, Ludogorets, Sp*rs and Manchester United.

It’s likely the striker won’t be ready for another week, meaning he’ll miss three more games, however, he could challenge for a squad position when Arsene Wenger’s men travel to the London Stadium to face West Ham on 3 December.

Arseblog News’ resident Arsenal youth expert, Jeorge Bird, also reports that Chris Willock and Gedion Zelalem trained with the first team ahead of tomorrow’s Champions League group decider. We’ll have more team news later.
