Oxlade-Chamberlain set for Arsenal return in two weeks, confirms Wenger

Arsenal are hopeful that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will return to action in two weeks.

The midfielder has been absent since the Gunners' Premier League 2-0 victory over Manchester City earlier this year.

Prior to that setback the England international had been enjoying one of his best seasons at the Emirates since joining the Gunners for £12m from Southampton in 2011, scoring two goals in 32 appearances.

Wenger has now revealed the 21-year-old should return within a fortnight's time, but Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Debuchy face longer on the sidelines.

"Oxlade-Chamberlain is about two weeks away from returning but Arteta and Debuchy will still be out for a while," Wenger said.
