Swedish Squad Announcement: Isak Named While Gyokeres Omitted

Arsenal striker the Swedish attacker was left out in the new manager's first Sweden team selection, while Reds forward Alexander Isak has earned a place

The Arsenal forward is scheduled to undergo additional medical tests in the coming days following fears he sustained a hamstring injury in the Gunners's English top flight win against Burnley last weekend

Gyokeres sat out the Gunners' Champions League win versus the Czech side earlier this week

Alexander Isak Returns

The Liverpool striker, who hasn't featured from 22 October owing to muscle issues, has been chosen to play in World Cup qualifying games against the Swiss team (November 15th) and Slovenia (November 18th)

Other Premier League Call-ups

• Spurs playmaker Lucas Bergvall, who is recovering from a head injury
• Magpies winger Anthony Elanga

Both athletes feature in Potter's Premier League players named by ex- Brighton, Chelsea and West Ham boss the new Swedish coach

Potter's Appointment

The English manager was named by Sweden originally for an interim period in late October, less than four weeks following leaving from West Ham

Former manager the Danish coach was sacked following Sweden's setback against the Kosovan team in mid-October, a result that made straight qualification in qualifying group impossible

Current Position

Sweden are currently last place of Group B having only a single point from four matches

Should they fail to claim the runner-up spot, there remains a chance they might participate in the World Cup play-offs because of their performance in the latest UEFA competition
