Let’s go there GUNNERS- Lacazette react to amazing news coming out from Arsenal yesterday night
Alexandre Lacazette is among those who have praised and applauded Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah on Instagram for getting called up to the latest England squad.
Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah is part of the England squad for their upcoming matches against Ukraine and Scotland.
England will take on Ukraine in a Euro 2024 qualifier on September 9 in Poland.
The Three Lions will then face Scotland in a friendly international at Hampden Park in Glasgow on September 12.
Delight for Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah after England call-up
This is the first time that Arsenal striker Nketiah has been called up to the senior England squad.
And, as you can see below, former Arsenal striker Lacazette is among those who are really pleased for the 24-year-old.
The striker himself is clearly over the moon to have received the call-up.
It is really exciting news for Nketiah.
Nketiah is not necessarily one of the best strikers in the Premier League.
The 24-year-old is not even guaranteed a place in the Arsenal starting lineup.
Gabriel Jesus is the first-choice striker at the Gunners.
However, Nketiah is a very promising player who is brilliant in and around the penalty area.
And he does tend to perform well when he is given a run of games.
The striker has made 92 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
Nketiah has scored 16 goals and given three assists in those games.
The Arsenal no. 14 has made two starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League this season.
The striker has scored two goals in those matches.
