Oct 19, 2016

Aaron Ramsey is chomping at the bit to get back on the football pitch after missing the majority of the season due to the hamstring injury he picked up against Liverpool on opening weekend.

Speaking at his press conference ahead of the Champions League group game against Ludogorets on Wednesday night, Arsene Wenger confirmed that the Welshman was ‘not far away’ from a return and pictures of him training, alongside Olivier Giroud, were great to see.

Taking to his Facebook account on Wednesday, Ramsey expressed his excitement:

The Ludogorets game will be the 11^th one that Ramsey has missed this season and his 195^th missed through injury since he arrived at Arsenal in 2011.
