Arsenal boss Unai Emery has revealed that Welsh midfielder Aaron Ramsey is hopeful of playing for the Gunners again before the end of the season.
The 28-year old limped out of Thursday's Europa League clash with Napoli with a suspected hamstring injury , sparking concerns that he may have played his last game for the club.
Ramsey is to leave the Emirates for Italian giants Juventus this summer after the Gunners failed to agree terms on a new contract, but Emery believes Arsenal fans might not have seen the last of the former Cardiff City star.
Speaking ahead of his side's clash with Crystal Palace on Sunday, Emery revealed that he'd spoken with Ramsey, adding that the player himself seems confident of a return.
He said: "The last matches, his performances have been amazing and helping us a lot in the key moments this season.

"His injury is also bad news and I don't know how long it will take him out of the team, but maybe two or three weeks.
"My focus today is on the match on Sunday, we are going to play the semi-final and I was speaking to him about 30 minutes ago and we were speaking about that, 'maybe in two or three weeks, I can play some matches'. We are going to wait for that."
That timescale would see Ramsey potentially return in time for Arsenal's Europa League semi-final second leg against Valencia, as well as the club's final league game against Burnley on May 12.
It would also help ease any concerns from Wales boss Ryan Giggs, whose side face a crucial double header of UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers against Croatia and Hungary at the beginning of June.
