Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been absent since December due to a foot injury.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan could claim to face his former teammates at Manchester United as he gets closer to his return from a four-week absence.
Arsenal expects Mkhitaryan to resume full training before his England Cup clash next Friday, as the midfielder continues his recovery after a foot injury.
The Armenian is no longer in action since December 19 after fracturing a metatarsal of the right foot in the defeat against the Carabao Cup in Tottenham after a collision with Lucas Moura.

Arsenal had initially predicted the 29-year-old would miss all of his January schedule, but the club confirmed Thursday that Mkhitaryan should resume training after the Premier League match with Chelsea on Saturday.
In the absence of Mkhitaryan, the Gunners have won only two of their five league games and are six points behind Chelsea, fourth.
Arsenal also confirmed that Rob Holding (knee) and Danny Welbeck (ankle) continued their recovery from long-term injuries.
