Arsenal have been handed a massive boost on the fitness of Alexandre Lacazette ahead of the clash with AC Milan in the Europa League on Thursday.

The France international agreed to move to the Emirates stadium during the summer of 2017 in a deal which made him the most expensive player in the club’s history at the time.

Lacazette made an encouraging start to his career in north London, but his form suffered a dip ahead of the January transfer window.

Following the arrival of Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang, the 26-year-old’s playing time has certainly been limited.

And matters got worse for Lacazette as he suffered an injury after his forgettable cameo appearance in the north London derby at Wembley stadium.

The former Lyon striker has been nursing a knee injury for the past couple of weeks but he finally made a return to action on Wednesday.

Here were a few pictures as Lacazette got back on the pitch at London Colney ahead of the clash with AC Milan…
