Arsenal has been handed a boost on the fitness front as a new report reveals the Gunners could have Takehiro Tomiyasu back for their game against Brighton.
The Japanese defender was injured shortly after returning from the World Cup and missed Arsenal’s 3-1 win against West Ham.
He has now returned to training, according to Sun Sports and the report says he is in contention to start their next match if picked.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Arsenal has been in fine form this season and needs all their men fit and ready to play to maintain their current run of form.
The Gunners have used Ben White as their main right-back, which has limited the chances Tomi gets.
However, the Japanese star is still important and can play as a left-back which he has done often.
His return to fitness increases the options available to Mikel Arteta and it ensures we can pick a good team to field in our next game.
Tomi has been injury prone for much of this season and we hope he can stay fit for a long time after making this return.
The defender is one of the effective members of our squad and it is great news to have him back in the squad.

this is good news… big game against Brighton .. they all are now but esp they are playing very well at the moment
I feel another Nketiah goal and a screamer from either Partey or Xhaka… or maybe its time for White to open his account!
Real positive news, think we could strike a deal with Athletic Madrid.
Ever since the departure of Kieran Tripper they have been looking at right backs.
Joe Felix for Cedric Soares with a few quid giing the other way to dampen the loan.
There is also a report that Athletic Madrid is interested in the Portuguese.
That’s some good news
Brighton Albion right now are missing some of their first team player so it’s time to capitalise
Caisedo suspended after picking is fifth yellow card
Macalister will not be available
Welbeck injured
Webster injured
Great news! Hopefully, he gets some minutes against Brighton to be match-fit for Newcastle’s game on Jan 3rd. We need him to nullify the threat of Almiron on the left flank, like he did to Salah.
