Arsenal have been linked with a move for 26-year-old Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres ahead of the summer transfer window.
Viktor Gyokeres has been sensational since his move to Portuguese club Sporting CP, and he has 50 goal contributions this season. The Swede has been linked with multiple top clubs in recent months and a report by Correio da Manha via Sport Witness has claimed that Arsenal have requested talks with the player’s agent ahead of a potential move.
Gyokeres could transform Arsenal in the final third, and he would be a huge upgrade on Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian international has not been able to score goals consistently, and he has attracted a lot of criticism in recent months. Kai Havertz is not a reliable goalscorer either, and Arsenal need to find a prolific striker.
The Swedish international would be the ideal fit for them, but he is unlikely to be a cheap acquisition. He will cost a substantial amount of money in the summer and it will be interesting to see if arsenal are willing to pay up. Convincing the player to join them should not be difficult.
Gyokeres could fancy Arsenal move
Arsenal are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to play for them could be quite attractive for Viktor Gyokeres. He will want to fight for major trophies with them. Arsenal have been fighting for the league title in the last three seasons, and the Swedish international could help them finally get over the line.
The 26-year-old Swede has been linked with other English clubs as well, and it will be interesting to see if Arsenal can act quickly and get the deal done. The striker is at the peak of his powers, and he will want to showcase his ability at the highest level. The opportunity to compete in the Premier League will be hard to turn down for him.
He will certainly be excited about a potential move if there is a concrete proposal on the table. Arsenal have a talented squad at their disposal, and a quality striker could help them match up to the elite clubs and win major trophies once again.
