Arsenal are moving for Julian Alvarez, with the Viktor Gyokeres era at the Emirates Stadium seemingly ending after just 12 months
The Gunners endured just their fourth loss of the season in all competitions at the weekend in the Carabao Cup final, but still have hopes of winning trophies on three other fronts before the season is over.
With plenty of criticism directed at players at both ends of the pitch on Sunday, it appears as if Arsenal are looking at addressing one of those concerns with a club-record signing.
Arsenal’s premium Club Level tickets offer superb padded seating and access to the lounge two-and-a-half hours pre-match. The package includes four drinks, one food item, and a half-time complimentary drink. Guests also receive a £5 merchandise voucher and a complimentary Museum Tour, ensuring an elevated and comprehensive matchday experience for home supporters.
While goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga came under fire for fumbling a cross onto the head of Nico O’Reilly at the weekend, there was plenty of discussion after the loss about Viktor Gyokeres’ inability to hold the ball up when Arsenal went long to their Swedish striker.
Despite the 27-year-old managing 16 goals this term in 42 appearances, Gyokeres has failed to fully convince in red and white, with Kai Havertz a much stronger presence as a target man in manager Mikel Arteta’s system.
The Gunners’ weaknesses in attack this term have led them to Alvarez, as per TEAMtalk, who cite “strong reports in the Spanish media”.
Arsenal director Andrea Berta was a leading force in the charge to sign Gyokeres over Benjamin Sesko last summer, and having signed Alvarez at his former side, Atletico Madrid, reports now claim that Arsenal are “already close to finalising the terms” of the Argentine’s return to the Premier League.
