Arsenal can recall this player as a substitute for injured Jesus

The World Cup has brought a huge problem for Arsenal as Gabriel Jesus is potentially out for three months because of his knee injury.

This is going to haunt Arsenal and can hamper what has been a dream start for the Gunners this season.

It will also be a huge problem for Arteta as not only he will be without his main attacking threat but he lacks the option to cover for Jesus.

Although, there is an option available for them as they can call Eddie Nekitah back into the starting XI

This may seem like a good option at first but placing him under such pressure when the team is chasing glory everywhere seems like a risky move.

The other option for them is to call their loaned-out player Folarin Balogun back from Ligue 1.

He joined Stade Reims on a one-year loan period, however, there is a clause in the contract stating Arsenal can recall him in January.

He was a star player in the u18 Arsenal side however he failed to shine in a loan spell for Middlesbrough last season.

But this season the scenarios are completely different as he has 8 goals and 1 assist in 15 matches in Ligue 1.

It is clearly visible that he can perform on higher levels and with the quality of players Arsenal have, he is likely to have a goal feast.
