What happened. Arsenal are being linked with a move for Victor Osimhen in a future transfer window. Christos Tzolis's strong early form could let the club shift focus to a striker.

• Tzolis has four assists in five Arsenal games, including one against Napoli.
• Arsenal signed Tzolis for £34million in the summer.
• Arsenal pursued Vinicius Jr in the summer but the left-wing move did not happen.

“very, very smart”

— Mikel Arteta

If Tzolis keeps performing, Arsenal may prioritise a No. 9 in January or beyond.
