Arsene Wenger has revealed that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could be fit for Arsenal's FA Cup final with Aston Villa on May 30.

Oxlade-Chamberlain, 21, has missed the last two months with hamstring and groin problems but the Frenchman says that his inclusion next Saturday is "not impossible".

Wenger told the club's official website: "It's not impossible because he starts full training today. We'll see how he responds to that."

The England winger has made 31 appearances in all competitions this season.

The Gunners boss also cast doubt on Danny Welbeck's chances of being fit for the showpiece at Wembley.

Arsenal, who look poised to finish third, round off their Premier League season with a visit of West Bromwich Albion on Sunday.
