Arsenal youngster Tyreece John-Jules is currently on loan at Doncaster Rovers where he will try and impress the Gunners sufficiently to earn a first-team opportunity.

On Saturday he fired home his second goal of the week as Rovers defeated Northampton Town 2-0 at Sixfields.

His goal was a thing of beauty and highlighted the finesse of such a talented young player.

John-Jules has been fighting to get fit after picking up an injury earlier in the campaign and he’ll hope to enjoy an extended run of games.

The 19-year-old earned some praise from the Doncaster Free Press following his latest performance.

He was given a 7/10 for his performance with the player ratings piece describing some strengths of his game.

They read: “A sublime chip for a goal that will be the highlight of the day for a striker and turned in an energetic performance on his first start for a few months.

“He made smart runs into gaps to give Rovers real threat as they control of the game.”

TBR View – Will John-Jules earn Arsenal chance next season?

Mikel Arteta has shown a willingness to hand opportunities to young talent and John-Jules could be the next to emerge from the academy.

The immediate challenge for the teenager is to stay injury-free and enjoy a run of games at the Keepmoat Stadium.

He is certainly showing that he knows the way to goal, however, with his movement into space likely to be impressing those monitoring his progress at Arsenal.

The Gunners have been static in attack this season and having a lively frontman like John-Jules might prove a decent asset for Arsenal next season.

Arteta will be watching with intrigue to see how the striker continues to develop.
