Arsenal midfielder Matteo Guendouzi dressed up for Halloween to scare teammate Alex Iwobi but things didn’t go as well as he hoped.
The Frenchman snuck up on the winger only for the Nigerian international to see it coming.
However, Iwobi didn’t see the microphone placed above him when he stood up, knocking his head, leading to a fit of laughter from Guendouzi:

Fans on Twitter were jokingly questioning whether Iwobi may have been injured due to the incident:

The Gunners players have been very active on social media this season, and many of them are certainly endearing themselves to the supporters.
It helps too when the team is playing well, and in Guendouzi and Iwobi’s case, both player’s performances on the pitch certainly allow them a bit of leeway to have a laugh or two.
Arsenal fans will have their fingers crossed that Iwobi’s head has recovered in time for the massive game against Liverpool on Saturday.
