Ben White may be set to return from injury this weekend, while Bukayo Saka steps up his recovery during Arsenal’s mid-season training camp in Dubai.

Arsenal fans have reason to be optimistic as Ben White is set to make his return from injury this weekend against Leicester City. White has been sidelined since November following a minor knee operation, but his participation in Arsenal’s mid-season training camp in Dubai signals a positive step towards full fitness.

White’s return couldn’t come at a better time for Arsenal, who are gearing up for a crucial run of fixtures, including matches against West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie. His defensive prowess and leadership will be invaluable as the Gunners aim to close the gap on league leaders Liverpool.

In addition to White’s comeback, Bukayo Saka is also making significant strides in his recovery from a hamstring injury sustained in December. Saka has been included in the squad’s Dubai training camp and is targeting a return in early March. His progress has been encouraging, with Arsenal posting photos of him working out in the gym with a smile on his face.

Saka’s return will be a major boost for Arsenal, especially with his creativity, pace, and goal-scoring ability. The Gunners will be hoping to have both White and Saka back in action as they push for a successful end to the season.
