Arsenal is believed to have finalised a contract to sports CP star Viktor Gyoker after several weeks of negotiations that, in principle, agreed to the fees earlier this week, but he has always been not the only option for sports director Andrea Berta.

Gyoker has optimism against AC Milan in Singapore next Wednesday that he can link with Arteta’s team in time for the first pre-season match of the summer, and supporters are eager to do so.
The prolific striker who can guarantee over 25 goals per season has been considered the last missing piece of Arteta’s Jigsawpa. He could also be re-winning Arsenal Premier League title winner after a long wait of two years.
They scored 69 top flight goals last season. This is well below 91 and 89 total in the 2023/2024 and 2022/2023 campaigns, respectively, with Arsenal struggling to break down the low block leading up to the Arteta side, which has registered more draws than any of the top 10.
Gyoker’s incredible records in Portugal over the past two years highlight exactly why Berta considers the 27-year-old an ideal solution.
Sesco was Arsenal’s long-term goal, attempting to sign the Slovenians last summer and January (Ben Jacobs).
Berta has decided to officially pursue a centre forward (BBC) after working on both Sesko and Gyoker’s deals simultaneously, but the 22-year-old is currently in Limbo.
Benjamin Sesco joins Man United after talking about the failed Arsenal
According to Givemesport, Sesko has been keeping an eye on a potential move to Man United, and following what proved to be a “really complicated” discussion with Arsenal, he may still have options in the Premier League.
Unfortunately for him, Leipzig now appears to be hampering a potential move right now, just a year after hitting the gentleman’s agreement that he could leave this year or 2026.
Sesco rejected proposals from Arsenal, Chelsea and Mann United last summer, and it is much more difficult to secure the switch this time, and feels it could cost up to £86 million to convince Leipzig to the part company.
The former Salzburg sensation enjoyed last year’s career-high Bundesliga campaign, but the story surrounding his future appears to drag on as Arsenal finishes his striker’s pursuit with Gyoker.
