Arsenal has long been interested in Sporting Club’s Viktor Gyökeres, and some fans still believe the Gunners could make a move for him in this transfer window.
Mikel Arteta’s side has been tracking Gyökeres for several months, viewing him as an ideal addition to their squad. Arsenal is in need of a new striker as their current options have not delivered enough goals, despite being one of the top-scoring teams in the Premier League.
Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah have not contributed enough to Arsenal’s overall goal tally, prompting the club to look for a more prolific forward. Gyökeres has proven to be an effective attacker, making him an attractive target.
However, Arsenal faces competition from Liverpool and Tottenham, who are also interested in Gyökeres. Both clubs are in the market for a new goalscorer and see the Swedish international as a valuable addition to their squads.
According to a report from Football Insider, Liverpool and Tottenham consider Gyökeres too good to ignore, adding more urgency to Arsenal’s pursuit if they wish to secure his signature before the transfer window closes.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Gyokeres was fantastic for Sporting Club last season and could take that form to England if we add him to our squad.
But the competition from Tottenham and Liverpool is serious and we have to do our best to ensure he does not join them.

Sign him ASAP, gyokeres!!!
From the latest reports it seems that Liverpool at least don’t think he’s “too good to ignore” and apparently won’t be perusing their reported interest in him preferring to stick with Nunes.
Don’t know what Sp*rs are doing or not doing. I haven’t read any other reports to suggest they’re really after him, but you never know.
What’s nagging at the back of my mind about Gyokeres is this. If he’s such a great prospect for any major European league why hasn’t a club activated his release clause, or even entered into preliminary negotiations (which no club has so far, apparently)? It appears that only Arsenal have a consistent interest in him according to the media. Rather odd, isn’t it?
I feel adding victor Gyokeres to the Arsenal scored is a very good plan. He is excellent with the ball and shoots accurately. He will be the next Robin Van Perse for us.
