Viktor Gyokeres stuck without a goal: Arsenal reshuffle risk
Hamstring issues for Havertz and Tzolis could shift roles, with Gyokeres yet to score in five appearances and 192 minutes.
Arsenal are weighing up Viktor Gyokeres as they consider changes after hamstring injuries to Kai Havertz and Christos Tzolis. Sky Sports reports that the centre-forward and left-wing roles are likely to be adjusted over the next few weeks, with the Swedish striker set to cover the space left by Havertz.
So far, Gyokeres hasn’t made much of an impact. He is still looking for his first goal in five appearances across all competitions this term. He has started only two of those games and managed just one shot in 192 minutes.
The wider picture is that Havertz has been the clear first-choice No 9, and Gyokeres has struggled to fit Arsenal’s system. With the injury wave, his chance could be coming at the right time.
