Arsenal Handed Boost As Key Players Return To Training After Injury-Induced Lay-off

Arsenal have been handed a boost ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League round of 16 tie at FC Porto, with Thomas Partey and Fabio Vieira being in attendance at training following recent injury issues.

Arsenal will hope to secure a place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time since 2010.

The Gunners have returned to the Champions League for the first time since the 2016/17 season and secured their place in the knockout stages after topping their group.

Partey and Vieira missed Arsenal’s 5-0 victory at Burnley last weekend but could feature against Porto on Wednesday evening.

Arsenal are due to fly to Portugal on Tuesday evening, ahead of rhe Champions League last-16 clash with the two-time European champions.

The late flight has allowed Arteta to put his side through their paces ahead of their departure.

According to Football.London, both Partey and Vieira were in attendance on the Sobha Realty Training Centre pitches during the open session.

However, Gabriel Jesus, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Oleksandr Zinchenko were nowhere to be seen, hinting they could be unavailable for the tie.
