Bellerin, 21, is currently sidelined with an ankle injury suffered in the draw with Tottenham earlier this month.

But according to The Sun, he has already been given the go-ahead to return to light training next week.

There were apparently initial fears that Bellerin could have been out for up to 10 weeks.

However The Sun claim the Spaniard is now on track for a return in mid-December.

It will come as a boost to Arsene Wenger, who has relied on Bellerin as his first-choice right-back in recent seasons.

The former Barcelona man started all 11 of Arsenal’s top-flight fixtures before his injury this term, providing one assist in the process.

And he recently put pen-to-paper on fresh terms at the Emirates, tying him to the club until 2023.

"I have been here a long time, I feel like this is my home and this is the right thing to do," said Bellerin on confirmation of his new contract.

"I am very happy to still be a Gunner for many more years."

Arsenal will have to make do without Bellerin when they host Bournemouth on Sunday.

The Gunners currently sit fourth in the table, three points adrift of leaders Chelsea.
