Arsenal finished the summer transfer window with just Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah as the forward options going into the season. A lot of pressure has been placed on both, with a heavy fixture schedule due to the Europa League.
Matters have been made even worse as football.london understands Gabriel Jesus had to withdraw from the Brazil World Cup squad after suffering a knee injury, and this could he’ll be out of action when club football returns.
This creates a major dilemma for Mikel Arteta whether or not to risk playing Eddie Nketiah in Arsenal’s winter camp that gets underway on December 8. With Jesus out of action, an injury to Nketiah could prove fatal for the Gunners.
