Arsenal receive major fitness boost for Cardiff City game

Mesut Ozil back for Cardiff clash

Arsenal receive major fitness boost for Cardiff City game

31 August 2018 - 18:04

Arsenal have received a timely boost for the Cardiff City with midfielder Mesut Ozil said to have completely recovered from an illness which kept him out of the West Ham United game.

  • Chelsea join Liverpool & Man Utd in race to sign 26yo
  • Barcelona identify Arsenal midfielder as key transfer target



  • The 29-year-old was not included in the matchday squad during the Gunners' 3-1 triumph over West Ham United and there had been suggestions that he was dropped after a rift with manager Unai Emery.

    However, the Gunners boss clarified that the attacker was not involved only because of a heavy cold and he appears to have now completely recovered after participating in first-team training.

    Aside from Ozil, there has not been any positive news on the injury front with  Sead Kolasinac, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Carl Jenkinson and Laurent Koscielny all expected to miss the trip to the south of Wales.

    Arsenal made a poor start to the season with successive defeats in the Premier League but they have since recovered with a hard-fought 3-1 win over West Ham United at the Emirates Stadium.
