Arsenal’s season is going so well that they are able to do without a striker who is eclipsing Kylian Mbappe in the French goalscoring charts.
When Gabriel Jesus went down injured at the World Cup, there may have been a collective sharp intake of breath in the north-east of France. Could Reims be about to see their star striker recalled from his season-long loan in January to cover for Jesus?
In the event, the Gunners did not take that option. Reims fans can thank Eddie Nketiah for helping protect their young, in-form, English goal machine.
