Arsenal's Jack Wilshere To Return On February 4

Jack Wilshere is set to hand Arsenal a timely boost by returning to full training before the end of January.

The England international has missed the entire season with an ankle injury aggravated in the pre-season Emirates Cup tournament.

Wilshere is on a strict rehabilitation programme and has stepped his training regime ahead of his first-team return.
And the Gunners medical team hope to have the central midfielder ready to join in training late this month or early February.

The Barclays Premier League game against Bolton on February 1 is likely to come too early for Wilshere to make his playing return.

But Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger hopes to have the influential midfielder in contention to play against Blackburn on February 4 or Sunderland seven days later.
