Arsenal thought it was done with the attacker's file. The signature of Viktor Gyökeres took a long time to come true. The fault of the litigation between Sporting CP and the Swedish CP until negotiations led to the check for € 75 million signed by the English club. It is not possible to say that he was eagerly awaited by fans of the Gunners. His flocked jersey of 14 quickly experienced a stock, and the site jumped when it was announced. The rest is less pink.
The first steps of the scorer are complicated, both friendly and in official match. Often taken in the trap against the Red Devils, he suffered from the little connection with his new teammates. However, he had received the congratulations of Mikel Arteta. “” Gyökeres did a lot of very good things, I'm happy. We feel on our high pressing and in the rhythm that we impose, that there are still points to improve. But coming to Manchester United and winning a victory in the first game is a very good start. »»
Havertz absent for a long time, Arsenal wants to fly Eze in Tottenham
The Swedish must quickly upgrade because the Gunners continue by the reception of Leeds, then above all a trip to Liverpool, then a duel against Manchester City at the Emirates, before going to Newcastle. The English media were already starting to lean for the Kai Havertz option in Pointe, in order to let the new recruit take its marks with less pressure on the shoulders, but it was before the terrible news of the day. The German was injured in the knee and his condition is considered serious.
In other words, he will miss a large part of the season, he who had already been forced to withdraw for a problem with the hamstrings during the second part of last season. Arsenal is starting to run out of options ahead. He has only Leandro Trossard and Mikel Merino, who are not business attackers. Victim of a break in the crossed ligament in January, Gabriel Jesus was not expected before November. Management is already looking at the market to compensate for this new absence. Timing, the very short time and the means implemented may complicate this task.
And according to the latest indiscretions of The Athleticthe name chosen by the London management is that of Eberechi Eze (27 years old). A file that will have to be concluded quickly for the English attacking midfielder saw his Crystal Palace club agree with Tottenham which offered 70 million euros to sign it. However, nothing is definitely signed for the moment since the Eagles intend to make Eberechi Eze play this Thursday in the Europa Conference League against Fredrikstad. A delay which therefore allows Arsenal to incorporate into the file. The Gunners would be ready to align with the conditions offered in Tottenham and now have the advantage in this file. Indeed, Eberechi Eze is a fan of the club in northern London and has evolved into young people between 2006 and 2011. Tottenham for its part would be ready to fall back on other tracks. Eberechi Eze remains on a crazy season with 14 goals scored and 11 assists distributed in 43 games.
