- Gyokeres set to join Arsenal
- Arrives after prolific campaign at Sporting
- But must adapt to life with the Gunners
Arsenal’s hunt for a goalscorer looks to be over, with Gyokeres set to join the Gunners in time for the 2025-26 الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز season. The Sweden international moves after a prolific campaign in Portugal which saw him score 39 goals in just 33 league games for Sporting.

Arsenal will be hoping that Gyokeres can continue his prolific form in the Premier League and help fire them to the Premier League title. Former striker Jeremie Aliadiere, who was part of the 2003-04 title-winning squad in north London, says the new arrival will have to adapt after joining Mikel Arteta’s side.

He told UK Riches: “Will there be pressure on Viktor Gyokeres? Anyone who joins Arsenal now will know the target, they will know the goal.n Finishing in the top four or even the top two isn’t good enough, it’s about winning the Premier League and that’s what everyone connected to the club wants.n
“It’s been building and with recent signings as well as the signing of Gyokeres, the club can get over the line in the new season.n Gyokeres has other options but from what we’ve heard, Arsenal is his first choice and he will want to join the club in order to win the Premier League. It will be great to see the signing announced and how he will adapt to Mikel Arteta’s system.n He won’t be the only star at Arsenal, they have many other superstars and egos and all that stuff, he is going to have to adapt to play for the team and if he does, he can achieve great things.”
Gyokeres has now been given permission to travel to London and complete a medical with his new side. Meanwhile, the Gunners are currently in the Far East and will play Newcastle in a friendly on Sunday in Singapore.
