Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah has told Mikel Arteta that he is ready to help keep the Gunners' Premier League title hopes alive in the absence of Gabriel Jesus.
Jesus has quickly established himself as the main man at Emirates Stadium following his £45million switch from Manchester City in the summer. But the 25-year-old is facing up to three months on the sidelines after undergoing surgery last week in a bid to repair a knee injury he sustained at the World Cup with Brazil.
Gunners academy graduate Nketiah has found regular first-team action hard to come by following Jesus' arrival, but he is expected to be handed a more prominent role in the wake of the latter's injury.
