Arsenal have received a "massive boost" with Bukayo Saka fit and available to start when Arsenal face Fulham in the Premier League on Tuesday, says Mikel Arteta.

The 23-year-old has not featured since tearing his hamstring in December but Arsenal boss Arteta says he is "ready to go" against Fulham having rejoined full training.

"Bukayo is ready to go," said Arteta.

"The careful things are already done, so now it's about putting him on the grass in the right moments, but he is pushing because he really wants it."

Saka underwent surgery on his hamstring after the injury, suffered during the 5-1 win over Crystal Palace on December 21, but Arteta is confident about throwing him back in.
