STEPHEN Kelly is due to return to training this week ahead of Saturday's clash with Arsenal.

The Fulham full-back missed last weekend's stalemate at Sunderland after suffering a groin injury on international duty with the Republic of Ireland.

With Zdenek Grygera sidelined for six months with a serious knee problem, Kelly is the natural replacement on the right side of defence.

And the former Birmingham star should be fit for the trip to the Emirates.
