Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil is fit to face Cardiff City this weekend, having recovered from the illness which kept him out of the victory over West Ham United.

Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil has been passed fit to face Cardiff City on Sunday after recovering from illness.

The 29-year-old missed out on last weekend's 3-1 win over West Ham United at the Emirates as the Gunners finally picked up their first win of the new campaign.

Reports suggested that Ozil's absence was down to a bust-up with new head coach Unai Emery, although the Arsenal boss quickly refuted those suggestions and insisted that Ozil was ill.

The German playmaker has now recovered from his heavy cold, though, and could feature from the start at the Cardiff City Stadium, having returned to full training earlier this week.

Arsenal will still be without long-term absentees Sead Kolasinac, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Carl Jenkinson and Laurent Koscielny for the trip to South Wales.
