🔥🔥CONFIRMED: Victor Gyokeres JERSEY NUMBER confirmed amid speculation that the sporting Hitman have agreed to join Arsenal on a record fee of £120M – congratulations Arsenal fans

Looking at the Premier League table, it’s hard not to question whether Arsenal have truly had a strong start to the season. Ten games in, they’ve already dropped 12 points, leaving them seven points behind league leaders Liverpool and five points adrift of reigning champions Manchester City.

Following the Newcastle defeat, many have called for the Arsenal coaching staff to improve the team’s style of play with minor adjustments. However, even with these changes, there’s no guarantee of league success.

The upcoming winter transfer window presents a crucial opportunity for Arsenal to strengthen their squad and mount a serious title challenge. Key additions could provide the boost needed to secure league glory. However, a potential hurdle looms with the departure of Sporting Director Edu. Will his exit disrupt Arsenal’s plans? Ideally, it shouldn’t, as Edu likely represented a broader system. If Arsenal appoint the right replacement with systems already in place, the transition could be smooth.

One player who could significantly enhance Arsenal’s attack is Viktor Gyökeres. The Swedish striker has been in sensational form for Sporting, scoring 20 goals in 16 games this season. Despite speculation, reports suggest Gyökeres will not follow former Sporting coach Ruben Amorim to Manchester United, opening the door for Arsenal or other Premier League clubs to make a move.

Activating Gyökeres’ £85 million release clause would demonstrate Arsenal’s intent to challenge for the league title. He could serve as both a deputy and competition for Kai Havertz, addressing a key area of need in the squad. Securing such a high-profile signing would not only bolster Arsenal’s title hopes but also give fans renewed confidence in their new Sporting Director and the club’s ambition.
