Arsenal is gearing up for an exciting and action-packed January transfer window as they aim to bolster their squad with new signings while simultaneously moving some of their less utilized players out. The Gunners have been in fine form of late, and the upcoming transfer period is expected to be crucial in their pursuit of both domestic and European glory.
This past weekend, Arsenal secured an emphatic 5-1 victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, reaffirming their position as one of the Premier League’s strongest teams. Gabriel Jesus was the star of the show, scoring a brace, while Kai Havertz, Gabriel Martinelli, and Declan Rice added to the tally, delivering a dominant performance that closed the gap to Liverpool at the top of the table. With Arsenal now just three points behind the league leaders, despite having played two fewer games, their focus is now on adding reinforcements that will give them the edge in the title race.
As Arsenal prepares for a busy January, several players have already been linked with a move to the Emirates. Chief among these potential arrivals is Viktor Gyokeres, the talented striker from Sporting CP. The 26-year-old has been in sensational form this season, scoring an impressive 27 goals in just 25 matches, and it seems that Arsenal is keen to secure his services. According to reliable sources, manager Mikel Arteta is reportedly in contact with the player’s representatives as they explore a potential deal.
Sporting, however, has set a hefty price tag for Gyokeres, with the Portuguese club demanding around €65 million (£54 million) for the striker. Despite the steep valuation, Arsenal is reportedly undeterred and continues to pursue the deal, hoping to add a prolific forward to their ranks in the coming months. This move comes at a time when Arteta has been vocal about his desire to strengthen his attacking options. While the Gunners are well-stocked in the midfield and defensive areas, a reliable goalscorer remains a top priority.
