Arsenal star Santo Cazorla has stepped up his rehabilitation as he looks to recover from an Achilles injury which has kept him out for nine months.

Cazorla last appeared for us in October against Ludogorets before succumbing to a chronic problem which sidelined him for most of the previous campaign.

The Spaniard has undergone a number of surgical procedures to rectify the issue but those have been to no avail, which has negatively influenced our results.

Arsene Wenger repositioned Cazorla as a deep-lying central midfielder in 2015, a genius move which seemed it would prolong the former Malaga man’s career.

However, he has since failed to shake off these troublesome knocks and it seems his Arsenal career may end on the treatment table with just 12 months left on his current deal.

Cazorla hasn’t been able to apply pressure on his foot throughout the summer, so seeing him in the gym is certainly a step in the right direction.

No matter who we sign, we need the little magician.
