Arsenal injury, suspension list: Major fitness boost ahead of Premier League clash with Newcastle

Arsenal have been handed an injury boost ahead of their match against Newcastle on Monday, with Aaron Ramsey, Granit Xhaka and Nacho Monreal all expected to train as normal on Friday.

The trio have been struggling with injuries over the international break.

Arsenal have been at a training camp in Dubai this week but Monreal was left at home as he recovered from a tight calf.

Ramsey withdrew from Wales’s squad last Saturday due to a thigh problem and subsequently missed their Euro 2020 qualifier against Slovakia.

Meanwhile, fellow midfielder Xhaka has also eased concerns over an adductor injury he picked up while playing for Switzerland.

Xhaka scored as Switzerland raced into a 3-0 lead against Denmark on Tuesday night, but went off with 11 minutes to go as they drew 3-3.
