"Elneny will of course join us. He has joined us," said Wenger. "We will see if he can qualify for Sunday."

The Gunners sit top of the Premier League table level on points with Leicester after the six-goal thriller.

Arsenal led 3-2 thanks to an Olivier Giroud brace and an Aaron Ramsey effort but were denied victory after Joe Allen equalised in the 90th minute.

Robert Firmino was also on target twice for Liverpool.

Wenger is hoping Elneny won't be his only signing during the transfer window as he looks to win the club's first Premier League title since 2004.

As well as the Egyptian being available for the trip to Stoke, Alexis Sanchez is also in contention to play.

Wenger said: "He will have a definite test on Saturday. It's not impossible that he plays."
