Arsenal midfielder Mikel Merino has provided a significant boost to Spanish national team with a positive update on his recovery, as reported by @ArsenalNews_Hub
The Spanish international was spotted back in training, notably without a protective boot or crutches, indicating good progress in his rehabilitation.
Merino is expected to begin running within the next two to three weeks, a key milestone that keeps him firmly on track for achieving full fitness ahead of the upcoming World Cup.
While his return to full training is progressing well, there remains a slim chance of him featuring in late-season minutes for Arsenal.
The club’s medical team and management appear to be prioritising a full and complete recovery for Merino, with a cautious approach to his return to competitive action. The verdict from the update suggests that any late-season appearances would only occur if the player is deemed 100% fit, underscoring a commitment to long-term well-being over short-term risks.
