That's obviously never a good sign, especially for a player that is very, very explosive. So we are digging in a little bit more to understand where we are in terms of the injury and we'll announce the moment we know."
"Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres will undergo further tests this week amid fears he has suffered a hamstring injury. The Sweden international was withdrawn at half-time in the Gunners' victory at Burnley on Saturday having scored the team's opener. There is hope that the decision to withdraw Gyokeres at half-time at Turf Moor has prevented further complications, with initial thoughts being that the 27-year-old will miss at least two weeks."
