UEFA Champions League
Arsenal have made it clear who their next big signing should be to strengthen the offensive line: Viktor Gyökeres. The Swedish forward, currently playing for Sporting Clube de Portugal, has become a top priority for the 'gunner' team in the upcoming transfer market. With an outstanding season in the Portuguese League, the attacker has caught the attention of several elite clubs, but in London, they are determined to go all out to secure his signing.
Andrea Berta, recently appointed Sporting Director of Arsenal, has been following the player since his time in the Championship and now sees him as the ideal piece to bring quality to Mikel Arteta's squad. The lack of goals has been one of the team's weaknesses this season, and at the Emirates, they believe Gyökeres could be the decisive striker they desperately need.
A steep price, but they are willing to pay
Sporting Portugal, aware of the growing interest in their star, has set a high price for his departure: no less than 80 million euros, as reported by 'The Athletic'. It is a significant investment, but Arsenal is prepared to make a financial effort if it ensures they have a proven goal scorer with strong physical presence and ability to make runs.
With the summer transfer window approaching, all signs point to the London club trying to close the deal as soon as possible to outpace other suitors. Gyökeres is the main target to lead Arsenal's new project.
