David Luiz is expected to play again this season despite undergoing knee surgery on Sunday.
The Arsenal defender underwent the ‘small procedure’ over the weekend, throwing into doubt his availability for the remainder of the campaign.
But Sportsmail understands that there is hope Luiz, who is a key player for Mikel Arteta, will miss in the region of four weeks.
If all goes according plan the Brazilian could be available for the climax to the Gunners’ season.
The news will come as a major boost to Arteta, ahead of the campaign’s finale.
