Barring any last-minute hiccups, this is a statement signing from Arsenal. Gyokeres scored a remarkable 97 goals in 102 games for Sporting following his move from Championship side Coventry City in 2023 and is regarded as one of the world's best centre-forwards. Many have claimed that the Gunners need a top striker to finally help them end their 21-year Premier League title drought, and now they may have the final piece of the puzzle to make that possible.
