Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that Alexis Sanchez has a strong chance of returning for the club against Stole City on Sunday.

Sanchez has been out injured since 29 November, when he suffered a hamstring injury in the draw at Norwich City.

"Alexis I would say has a 60:40 chance to be available and be back in the squad," Wenger said today.

"He has two decisive days - Friday and Saturday. He is fit, he has worked very hard and the decision we have to take is whether to take a gamble or not on his injury."

Wenger also revealed that new signing Mohamed Elneny will be available to play.

"Elneny is available for selection, I haven’t decided yet [whether I will play him]. I have to see how everyone has recovered. Elneny is a possibility to be in the squad for Sunday."
