The striker joined Arsenal from Sporting Lisbon during the offseason
Gunners forward Viktor Gyokeres was left out from Graham Potter's first Sweden team selection, whereas Liverpool forward the talented attacker secured inclusion
Gyokeres is set to undergo additional assessments in the coming days amid fears he sustained a hamstring injury in the Gunners's Premier League victory at Burnley on Saturday
The 27-year-old sat out the Gunners' European victory versus Slavia Prague earlier this week
Isak Makes Comeback
The Liverpool striker, absent from action since 22 October owing to a groin injury, made the squad to play in the World Cup matches against the Swiss team (15 November) and the Slovenian side (18 November)
Additional Premier League Selections
- Tottenham playmaker the young talent, currently rehabilitating after a head knock
- Magpies wide player Anthony Elanga
Both athletes feature in Potter's Premier League contingent named under ex- Brighton, Chelsea and West Ham manager Graham Potter
Potter's Hiring
Potter took over by Sweden first temporarily in late October, less than a month after his departure by the Hammers
Former manager Jon Dahl Tomasson lost his job after the national team's setback to Kosovo on 13 October, a result that ended direct progression from their World Cup group impossible
Current Situation
Sweden find themselves last place of their qualifying group with only a single point from four matches
Even if they don't manage to finish second, they may yet be involved in the World Cup play-offs due to thanks to their showing during the previous Nations League
