Oleksandr Zinchenko's silky performance and stunning goal for Arsenal against Burnley has seen him named the latest Premier League Player of the Week!

The Gunners claimed a 3-1 win at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday to ensure they head into the international break on a high, with Zinchenko producing his best display of the season so far.

With a Flashscore player rating of 8.9, the Ukrainian defender simply dominated the left flank and his inversion into midfield gave visitors Burnley plenty of problems.

Zinchenko recorded 117 touches in the match, made five tackles and one 14 duels in total as well as creating two chances for his Arsenal teammates.

The 26-year-old then capped off a fine outing with a brilliant strike on 74 minutes - his acrobatic Paolo Di Canio-esque effort arrowing in to put the game out of Burnley's reach.

It helped Arsenal end the weekend third in the table on goal difference and just one point behind leaders Manchester City.

With international action now approaching, Zinchenko's focus will quickly switch to preparing for a crucial Euro 2024 qualifier against Italy.
