Arsenal’s Mikel Merino says he is ‘getting a taste’ for his new role as the team’s centre forward having been propelled up the pitch to lead the line in the wake of the Gunners’ continued injury crisis.
Merino is the current go-to No 9 in the absence of Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz, and Bukayo Saka who all remain on the sidelines with long-term injuries.
