The English international was joined by fellow team mate Oleksandr Zinchenko and Mohamed Elneny.
The 25-year-old Ukraine has been out of action since the last two weeks while Elneny who is 30 has missed last three months.
While speaking to the media this afternoon, Mikel Arteta reveals that the three players are back in training.
On the fitness of Saka, Elneny and Zinchenko:
They are at different stages obviously. Mo had a long-term injury but he has recovered now in a really good way and has been training with the team for a week or two now. Alex is just very recent and he’s had two training sessions. Bukayo just missed one or two sessions and was fine today
