Danny Welbeck says he’s hoping for a ‘flying’ return when he recovers from the knee injury that has kept him out since April.

Reflecting on his spell on the treatment table, Welbeck admitted spending double sessions in the gym has proved a hard slog.

“It is difficult,” the 24-year-old toldArsenal.com. “It is my first injury that has kept me out for so long. I had my operation and once that is sorted you can be out for a few more months.

“For the first month, in a leg brace, not being able to do anything, on a machine six hours a day, it was very difficult. But you have to try and see the positives. Luckily I had my family around me, my friends came down to London and I had my brothers.

“It was good to have people around me and have that support. You wake up in the morning and know you have double sessions in the gym it is hard but you have to see the positive side and I have learnt a lot more being injured on how to look after your body and prevent injuries. I have to see the positive side and hopefully when I come back, I will be flying.”

 

Arsenal have revealed that they will play a couple of games in Sydney’s ANZ Stadium in July 2017 as part of a multi-year tourism partnership with the New South Wales (NSW) Government.
