Arsene Wenger hopes to have Mesut Ozil back in his squad for the game against Hull City in the Premier League on Sunday at the KC Stadium.
Ozil has been sidelined due to a calf injury that he suffered in the game against Bayern Munich in the second leg of Arsenal’s Round of 16 tie in the Champions League.
Wenger also confirmed that Kieran Gibbs is unavailable due to injury, but Nacho Monreal will be available for the game against the Tigers.
“I think Gibbs will be out for the weekend. But Monreal is possibly available and Ozil could be available to travel as well. I will see about that on Friday and Saturday”, the Frenchman told the club’s official site.

“It's good to have him [Ozil] back because we had so many offensive players out. He gives you always opportunities to score and I have to test him physically tomorrow and Saturday to see if he can travel.”
The 64-year-old further confirmed that Mathieu Flamini will be available this weekend.
“We have Flamini available as well because he was suspended.”
Arsenal are currently fourth in the Premier League table on 67 points, followed by Everton in fifth on 66 points.
