Roy Hodgson, the former manager of England, has recommended that Arsenal consider acquiring striker Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon. The Swedish forward has gained attention for a potential transfer to the Gunners following his outstanding goal-scoring performance for the Portuguese team last season. Hodgson, known for his perceptive remarks, expressed strong opinions regarding Gyokeres’ prospects at the London club. “Viktor Gyokeres is already at a major club, competing at a level that aligns with the expectations of the Swedish national team. However, if he were to move to England, I believe he would be embraced by the entire Premier League for the quality of football he would contribute,” Hodgson mentioned to TribalFootball. “Should Arsenal acquire him, it would be a significant achievement for them.” Concerning the national team, this could present the coach with a choice, as I believe that both Alexander Isak and Gyokeres are accustomed to operating as a solitary striker, supported from either midfield or the flanks. Arsenal is working on finalizing the acquisition of Viktor Gyokeres, with reports indicating that they have consented to pay €63.5 million (£55 million) upfront for the forward, who is considered one of the top players in the world at present.
