Arsenal defender William Saliba has cautioned Premier League teams that they will face challenges when competing against Viktor Gyokeres. The Swedish striker was introduced to fans prior to Arsenal’s 3-2 victory over Newcastle United during the final match of their preseason tour in Singapore. Gyokeres arrived at the Gunners following a significant transfer from Sporting Lisbon. In an interview with the club’s website, Saliba emphasized that Arsenal’s new £63 million recruit poses a formidable threat to Premier League defenses. “We are aware of his exceptional skills, and it’s intimidating to compete against him. Naturally, I’m thrilled to have him on our team, and I’m confident that he will contribute to our victories and help us secure trophies.” What makes it frightening? When you go up against a goal-scoring striker, maintaining your concentration is essential! “Now that he’s on our team, he’ll be scoring for us, which is a positive thing.” Arsenal is heading to Hong Kong to compete against their rivals Tottenham on Thursday, following victories over AC Milan and Newcastle.
