The Chilean attacker is in line to make his comeback
against Stoke City on Sunday after a six-week spell on the sidelines,
but will face a fitness test first
The 27-year-old last featured for Arsenal in the 1-1 draw with Norwich City on November 29 and has since been out of action due to a hamstring problem.
Arsenal were initially hopeful he would be back before the turn of the year, but a recovery setback kept him
sidelined for three additional weeks.
Nevertheless, Sanchez is now in line to return to the pitch against Stoke at the weekend, though Wenger maintains he will not rush him back.
I will be cautious now. There is an opportunity that he will be in the squad for Sunday," Wenger said at a news conference.
"He will have a definite test on Saturday. Friday and Saturday will be two important days for him.
"It is not impossible that he will be involved."
