Arsenal, after finishing second in the Premier League for the third straight year, are pushing ahead with transfers. Viktor Gyokeres, who helped Sporting CP secure a domestic double and scored a crucial penalty in the Taca de Portugal final, is a top target. The striker hinted at a potential move, with Arsenal leading the race.
As the 2024/25 Premier League season ends, Arsenal shifted focus to summer transfers after finishing second for a third consecutive year. A 2-1 win over Southampton, with goals from Kieran Tierney and Martin Odegaard, wrapped up their campaign, but attention now turns to strengthening the squad for a title push in 2025/26. Manager Mikel Arteta is targeting four new signings, with Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres high on the list.
Gyokeres, who helped Sporting CP secure a domestic double, scored a crucial penalty in the 101st minute of the Taca de Portugal final against Benfica, which Sporting eventually won in extra time. Speaking after the game, he remained coy on his future, saying he was focused on the last few matches and unsure of what comes next. His success in Portugal, with two stellar seasons and a memorable finale, makes him a strong candidate for Arsenal’s attacking reinforcements.
With Manchester United failing to qualify for the Champions League, Arsenal hold a key advantage in negotiations. Fans and pundits alike believe Gyokeres could be the final piece Arteta needs to take Arsenal from contenders to champions, and the transfer business is expected to move quickly in the coming weeks.
