Arsenal defender William Saliba has returned to team training after being sidelined since the World Cup, the club confirmed on Tuesday. The French center-back has been absent since sustaining an injury during the tournament, missing a significant portion of the season for the Premier League side.
Saliba participated in full training sessions at Arsenal's London Colney facility on November 3, marking his first involvement with the squad since the World Cup concluded. The 25-year-old had established himself as a key figure in Mikel Arteta's defense before his injury absence.
The defender's return provides a timely boost for Arsenal as they navigate a demanding fixture schedule across multiple competitions. Arteta will assess Saliba's fitness levels before determining his availability for upcoming matches.
