Arsenal star Santi Cazorla claimed that he was “one step closer” to full fitness after he posted a video of himself stepping up the gym work on Instagram.

Cazorla has been sidelined since October with a chronic achilles problem which seemed to reach breaking point against Ludogorets in the Champions League.

The Spaniard’s diagnosis became ambiguous as the weeks wore on, and he has since undergone a number of surgeries with a return date unreleased by the club.

Cazorla recently underwent a procedure that got to the root of the problem which has enabled him to start his rehab with no hint of a breakdown so far.

While he’s yet to kick a ball, Cazorla clearly feels he’s getting stronger as the days go by after hinting that there is light at the end of the tunnel in his latest Instagram caption.

As fans, we’ve been forced to disregard his contributions in the near future given the seriousness of his injury, though any potential comeback made this season will be welcome.

Cazorla remains one of the most talented midfielders in the league, with his ability to control a football match unrivalled in this division.

“Working working pushing pushing!! Onestepcloser!” Cazorla updated fans.
