Monk delighted with Gomis return

Swansea City manager Garry Monk has revealed that striker Bafetimbi Gomis is in contention to face Arsenal on Monday night after returning from injury.

The French striker has missed the Swans' last three games with a hamstring problem, after scoring four in his previous six prior to falling injured.

Gomis netted the winner against the Gunners when both sides clashed in South Wales back in November - his first Premier League goal - and Monk says that his return represents a "big boost".

"Bafe returns, which is a big boost for everyone," the City boss told a press conference.

"He was in fantastic form in the lead up to that injury. He looks fit and sharp and his return will give us a boost."

Gomis, 29, has netted eight goals in all competitions during his first season in England.
