Charlton manager Karl Robinson says Joe Aribo has given him a selection headache ahead of Saturday’s clash with Shrewsbury.
Aribo, 21, starred in the win over MK Dons and would have been on the scoresheet if his powerful strike hadn't cannoned off the woodwork.
It was his first start in four games after losing his place in the team to the returning Jake Forster-Caskey.
But with Tariqe Fosu available for selection on Saturday, Aribo’s starting spot could be at risk.
Robinson told News Shopper: “Jake, [Ahmed] Kashi and Joe covered 38km against MK Dons.

“It was an unbelievable distance covered by those three players - I’ve never seen that.
“I can see Joe playing further forward in his career. Jake and Kashi as a pair look unbelievable. They look unreal.
“But then it’s unfair because you’ve got this extremely talented young player that you need to find a position for.
“Otherwise the game will lose a talented individual. We've got to find a system that fits him in it.
“He won’t play every game, he may or may not play on Saturday - I’m not going to tell Hursty [Shrewsbury manager Paul Hurst] over the camera.
“But we've got to find a way of him to play. We’re really looking well at the moment. Joe’s causing me a headache but that’s a player’s job.”
