Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez fit to face Leicester

Alexis Sanchez is available for Arsenal’s Premier League clash with Leicester on Tuesday, but Arsene Wenger does not yet know when he will be able to call on Jack Wilshere.

Sanchez, who has scored 12 goals in 21 Premier League appearances this season, missed the win over Aston Villa and the defeat to Tottenham because of a slight hamstring problem.

Having come close to returning for Saturday’s north London derby, the Chile international is fit for the visit of Leicester to the Emirates.
“Sanchez will be back in the group and we don’t have any injuries from Saturday,” Wenger told his press conference.
The news on Wilshere is not as encouraging as the midfielder continues his recovery from ankle surgery.

Wilshere has been sidelined since undergoing surgery in November and Wenger does not know when he will be able to call on the England international.
“We have to monitor him daily and see how he develops. I don’t know when he’ll return,” the Frenchman said.
