Wenger confirms Sanchez's return against Leicester

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says Alexis Sanchez will be back in the squad for the visit of Leicester on Tuesday.

The Chilean forward missed Saturday’s 2-1 derby defeat at Spurs with a hamstring strain but is in contention to start against the Premier League’s bottom club.

However, Wenger also reported that England man Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be out for another two weeks due to a groin problem.

Wenger said on Monday morning: "Sanchez will be back in the group and we don't have any injuries from Saturday. Everybody looked fine yesterday."

"Alexis is our best goal scorer and one of our hardest working players. Physically, I think we suffered a little bit on some occasions on Saturday and it is good to have him back."

Wenger also had news of midfielder Jack Wilshere, who is closing in on a return to action after recovering from an ankle injury.
