Mikel Arteta has given an update on Viktor Gyokeres' injury that forced him off in the win against Burnley.
The Sweden striker had to be withdrawn at half-time by Mikel Arteta despite scoring Arsenal's opening goal in the 2-0 win.
Gyokeres impressed at Turf Moor, enjoying one of his brightest games in a Gunners' shirt to date, but the joy was short lived as a muscle injury ended his game early.
The 27-year-old didn't appear from the tunnel for the second-half and was replaced by Mikel Merino.
Speaking after Arsenal's victory, Arteta spoke about Gyokeres' injury, saying: "In the first half was one of the best he's played with us.

"He felt something muscular so we have to wait to learn the extent of that."
Questioned about Martin Zubimendi, who was withdrawn on 77 minutes and seen shaking his head, the Spanish boss added: "Zubimendi asked to be subbed so we’ll have to wait and see."
Gyokeres had opened the scoring after 14 minutes when he nodded in from close range as Arsenal once again capitalised from a corner kick. Gabriel Magalhaes won the first ball before Gyokeres cleaned up the play to get on the scoresheet.

The Gunners went on to take advantage of a Burnley set piece to extend their lead. Gyokeres was again involved as he drove the visitors forward on the break. The Swede provided an incisive ball to Leandro Trossard, who crossed in for Declan Rice to head home on 35 minutes.
Gyokeres' goal against Burnley was his fourth Premier League strike of the season, ending a five-game goal drought in the league.
Next up for Arsenal is a trip away to Slavia Praha in the Champions League on Tuesday, before the title hopefuls travel to Sunderland next weekend.
