Chelsea Could Capitalize on Arsenal’s Delay in Pursuit of Gyokeres.

Arsenal have long been linked with a move for Viktor Gyoker

es as they look to solve a persistent issue up front. Since Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s departure, the team has lacked a reliable central striker. In recent seasons, Kai Havertz has often led the line, but his strengths lie more in a deeper or false nine role—something that may have limited Arsenal in tight title races.

   Arsenal Hesitant Despite Interest

Gyokeres, who has impressed at Sporting CP with his physicality, intelligent positioning, and consistent goal scoring, is seen as a potential solution. Despite strong interest, Arsenal have yet to make a formal offer, potentially leaving the door open for other clubs.

According to reports, Chelsea have already contacted Sporting to explore a deal. Their proactive approach puts them in a strong position to move ahead of Arsenal in securing the Swedish forward.

   Potential Consequences of Arsenal’s Slow Start

Arsenal’s cautious strategy early in the transfer window could prove costly. As other clubs act decisively, Arsenal’s hesitance may cause them to miss out on key targets like Gyokeres. With their goal of ending a trophy drought, the club may need to act more quickly to avoid losing ground to rivals.
