Theo Walcott’s recovery from a dislocated shoulder is
going according to plan, with the Arsenal forward anticipating
meeting his scheduled return date of mid-February.
Walcott sustained the injury while training with the England
squad in November and underwent surgery, with the original
prognosis from Gunners boss Arsene Wenger being that the
19-year-old would be out for “at least three months”.
The rehabilitation period is going exactly according to plan,
and Walcott fully expects to feature again for the north London
side in time for Arsenal’s Champions League last-16 tie on February
24 or 25.
"Everything is fine," said Walcott. "I am expecting to be back
mid-February."
