Danny Welbeck 'to return to Arsenal training on Wednesday'

Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck will reportedly return to training with his teammates on Wednesday following more than nine months on the treatment table with a knee injury.

The former Manchester United striker, who joined the Gunners in 2014, has not featured at all this season due to his injury woes.

Welbeck, who last played in Arsenal's goalless draw against Chelsea last April, is due to take part in full training tomorrow, according to the Daily Mail.

It is believed that manager Arsene Wenger will not rush Welbeck back into action, but is hopeful that the striker will be fit to play in February to help the club's title charge.

The Gunners' campaign took a hit when they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Chelsea at the Emirates on Sunday.
