Six Arsenal stars who have just 12 games to save their club careers including Smith Rowe and Jorginho | The Sun

SIX Arsenal stars are running out of time to save their careers at the club.

The Gunners are currently on course to win their first Premier League title in two decades but for some, it could be their final months at the club.

Mikel Arteta's side are eight points clear of second-placed Man City, having played one more game.

This means to seal the title, the Gunners may have to win nine of their remaining 12 games to become Premier League champions.

Throughout the season, the depth of the squad has been tested with injuries to first-team players which has pushed the squad to its limit.

But many have stepped up and contributed positively to the campaign.

Here are a list of six players that will be fighting to prove they still have a future at the club.

Kieran Tierney

The Scottish left-back has proved to be a reliable member of the squad when filling in for Oleksandr Zinchenko.

However, he is almost a victim of his own success as he deserves to be playing more regularly, which is difficult when behind the Ukrainian in the pecking order.

Tierney has been linked with a move to Newcastle in the summer and could have an escape route if he fails to dislodge Zinchenko by the end of the season.

The English centre-back has a great chance to prove himself to Arteta, with William Saliba set to miss several weeks after picking up an injury in the Europa League.

Holding did well in the win over Crystal Palace and could keep his spot after the international break.

However, he will have to stay on top form not to lose his spot to the Frenchman when he returns from injury.

Reiss Nelson

The London-born attacker has had an inconsistent season with injury but has made some important contributions when fit.

In his four Premier League appearances, he has scored three goals, including the stoppage-time winner against Bournemouth earlier this month.

The 23-year-old's contract expires at the end of the season and he will need to continue to make the right kind of impact to convince the club he is worthy of a new deal.

Emile Smith Rowe

The attacker has struggled with injuries this season which has limited his time on the pitch.

Smith Rowe has in turn only featured eight times in the league, providing one assist.

The Englishman is returning from injury at the right time and can prove he still has a future at the club during the run-in.

Jorginho

Despite only joining the club in January, Jorginho is already facing a fight to save his future at the club.

The Italian was signed as a cheaper alternative to Brighton's Moises Caicedo and is playing as an alternate to Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey.

However, the Gunners have been linked with a summer move for the Seagulls star as well as West Ham skipper Declan Rice, meaning Jorginho will need to prove that he can be trusted long-term.

Eddie Nketiah

It had seemed that Nketiah's time at the club was running out when Gabriel Jesus' arrival last summer but he stepped up when needed.

Following the injury to the Brazilian, Nketiah led the Arsenal attack and scored some vital goals.

However, with Jesus back fit and Leandro Trossard also filling in as a striker, Nketiah will once again have to fight to prove he is worthy of a spot at the club.
