Arsenal defender to make injury return vs PSG?

Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori could make his injury comeback against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League semi-final.

The Italy international picked up a fresh knee injury on international duty last month. He has been on the sidelines over the past few weeks.

However, the left-back is not far away from a comeback. He is anticipated to return to training in the lead-up to the Paris Saint-Germain ties.

Arsenal host PSG in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final on April 29. Calafiori has an outside chance to start from left-back.

The Gunners will be without Thomas Partey for the game due to suspension.

Myles Lewis-Skelly, who has been the regular left-back, could occupy the defensive midfield role against the French champions.

This could pave the way for Calafiori to feature at left-back. If he is not fully fit, Kieran Tierney could be a possible candidate.

Arsenal go into the first leg as potential favourites with home advantage. They need a solid victory before the visit of Paris in eight days' time.
