Christos Tzolis could miss up to three weeks after hamstring problem on Greece duty
WHAT HAPPENED
Arsenal winger Christos Tzolis suffered a hamstring injury while on international duty with Greece and could be sidelined for up to three weeks, reports say. The 24-year-old was substituted after 18 minutes during the Greece match and, according to The Athletic, has been sent back to Arsenal for assessment.

CONTEXT
Tzolis joined Arsenal from Club Brugge and has been a regular starter in the league this season, recording four assists for the club. Greek reports indicate the hamstring problem may keep him out for around three weeks.

WHAT IT MEANS FOR ARSENAL
With Tzolis likely unavailable, Eberechi Eze is one possible option to start on the left wing when Arsenal host Leeds United in the Premier League on October 10, according to the same reports. Arsenal’s medical assessment with the player remains the immediate next step.
