Jack Wilshere is also stepping up his recovery, while Danny Welbeck could feature against Hull in the FA Cup next week
Arsenal's injury woes are finally looking up - with Arsene Wenger revealing long-term absentees Santi Cazorla, Jack Wilshere and Danny Welbeck are all making good progress in their recoveries.
Cazorla and Wilshere are both back running and will return in a matter of 'weeks', whileWelbeck could feature against Hull in the FA Cup next week.
Spaniard Cazorla hasn't featured since injuring his knee ligaments in the 1-1 draw at Norwich on November 29, while Wilshere and Welbeck have been on the sidelines all season.
Ahead of Sunday's game against Leicester, Wenger said: "It is a similar squad available to last week, we are still early in the week but we should have everyone available.
"Of course Rosicky [is out], and Wilshere is not ready. But everyone else should be available.
Welbeck is doing well, it is a bit early for him maybe but he is now back to full power in training. It is a big possibility [he could be involved against Hull next week].
"We gave him one or two days recovery after the under-21 game, but now he is back in full training. He has worked very hard and he is fit.
"Cazorla and Wilshere re back running, they are on a fitness programme now so it means it is not a question of months anymore, it is a question of weeks for them to be back."
