He's back in training, not with the squad, but he's maybe two weeks away now," Wenger revealed. "We have a number of games and it's important to have our experienced players back."Wenger, meanwhile, admitted there were no further updates on the futures of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez, who are both locked in contract talks amid reports they could leave the Emirates Stadium.</blockquote>
