Viktor Gyokeres is quickly becoming a serious transfer option for Arsenal, according to David Ornstein.
With the summer transfer window approaching, the Gunners are putting plans in place to sign a top-class striker. Now that Andrea Berta has officially been appointed as sporting director, Arsenal can fully shift their focus to strengthening their squad.
This season has made it clearer than ever that Arsenal need a reliable goal scorer.

The club is determined to avoid past mistakes and finally secure a solution. A number of names have been linked with a move to the Emirates, with Alexander Isak reportedly Mikel Arteta’s dream signing. However, Newcastle are unwilling to sell. Liam Delap has also emerged as a potential option in recent days.
Benjamin Sesko was initially considered Arsenal’s top target, with the club already working behind the scenes to convince the player to join. But according to Ornstein, a move for the Slovenian international is far from certain.
Sesko’s release clause at RB Leipzig currently stands at €70 million and could rise to €80m, making him a relatively cost-effective option compared to other targets. However, Arsenal have yet to decide if they will actually make a move.
