Ghana winger, Kamaldeen Sulemana, has been cleared for selection after a long absence due to injury.
The 22-year-old could play his first game of the season when the Saints take on Leicester City this Saturday in the Premier League at St. Mary’s Stadium.
Kamaldeen suffered an injury in a pre-season friendly against Oxford United back in July.
"Everyone is pretty much as is. Ross came off (at Arsenal) and won’t be available but it's not a long-term injury. It's a frustrating setback for Ross and is disappointing for him and us,” Southampton manager, Russell Martin, said on Thursday.
"Kamaldeen is fit now to be in the squad and Will Smallbone is back now in the squad, so a couple of positives for us.”
Kamaldeen Sulemana registered just three assists in the Championship last season across 948 minutes, all of which came before an injury he picked up in December last year.
