Viktor Gyökeres linked with transfer amid Arsenal playing time concerns
Arsenal striker Viktor Gyökeres is facing significant transfer speculation following a decrease in playing time under manager Mikel Arteta. The 28-year-old Swede, who joined the club from Sporting Lisbon, has reportedly become unhappy with his reduced role in the squad.
Several major clubs have expressed interest in the striker. Italian sides AC Milan and Juventus are monitoring the situation, with Milan reportedly making initial inquiries. Interest has also been linked to clubs in Saudi Arabia, such as Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad.
Arsenal has maintained a firm stance regarding any potential departure. The club is reportedly unwilling to consider a loan deal, preferring a permanent transfer. Financial demands for the player are expected to be high, with estimates suggesting a valuation of at least €70 million (approximately £60 million) to facilitate a sale.
