Arsenal has decided not to authorize the sale of Viktor Gyökeres, a 28-year-old center forward, until securing the signing of a top striker for the upcoming summer transfer market.

As reported by TEAMtalk, the London club's board and coach Mikel Arteta are looking to strengthen the attacking line after evaluating the performance of the Swedish international, for whom they paid 67 million euros in the summer of 2025.

Viktor Gyökeres' Stats and the Coaching Staff's Demands at Arsenal

The 28-year-old forward completed his first season in England with 21 goals and 3 assists in 55 official matches. Despite those scoring figures, the board deems it essential to incorporate a player with a greater impact in the associative play to compete in both the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League.

However, Arsenal's institutional stance dictates that the departure of the Nordic striker will not be negotiated without first securing a guaranteed replacement. The hefty investment of 67 million euros made a year ago requires keeping the player in the squad until a substitute signing is finalized.

Julián Álvarez and Ivan Toney on the Technical Department's Agenda

Mikel Arteta's top choice for the Gunners' attack remains Julián Álvarez, for whom the board has already initiated actions during the summer market. However, Atlético de Madrid is not considering facilitating the sale of the Argentine, and the player himself prioritizes a potential transfer to FC Barcelona in the future.

As a secondary alternative, Ivan Toney, a 30-year-old forward playing for Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia, is being considered. The Englishman's acquisition raises concerns within Arsenal's technical department due to his age and not fully adapting to the coach's tactical requirements.

Financial Planning and Alternatives in the Summer Market

The board of the British entity is exploring other options in the European market to not rely solely on one negotiation channel. The club's intention is to finance the arrival of the new center forward through the subsequent sale of the Swedish attacker.

On the other hand, the Nordic forward still has a market in Europe following his performances in the Premier League, although his value will depend on the role he plays in the first half of the 2026-2027 season.

Arsenal's technical department analysts will monitor the striker's performance in the upcoming 10 official matches of the season. The board will hold meetings with Julián Álvarez's agents in December 2026 to decide whether to submit a formal proposal to Atlético de Madrid before authorizing any negotiations for the transfer of the Swedish international.
