Petr Cech returned to training

Petr Cech has resumed training ahead of Arsenal’s Europa League quarter-final first-leg against CSKA Moscow. The 35-year-old missed Sunday’s Premier League game against Stoke with a minor groin issue but had a full training with his team at London Colney. Arsenal’s hopes of qualifying for next season’s Champions League appear to rest on winning this competition, as they have fallen 13 points behind fourth-placed Tottenham in the Premier League.
