Arsenal players return to training ahead of Saturday match against Sunderland

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta provided a positive injury update ahead of Saturday's Premier League fixture against Sunderland. Arteta confirmed that defender Ben White is fit to play despite experiencing minor discomfort following the recent match in Naples. Additionally, center-back Cristhian Mosquera is nearing a return to action after his recent injury layoff. Right-back Jurrien Timber participated in first-team training this week and traveled with the squad for the midweek game, though he did not feature. If these players regain full fitness, William Saliba remains the only current injury absentee for the Arsenal squad. Sunderland also enters the weekend with a relatively healthy roster, with Romaine Mundle and Habib Diarra ruled out for the upcoming match.
