Gyökeres unhappy at Arsenal, Amorim eyes ex-Sporting star

Viktor Gyökeres is unhappy with the substitute role he has been playing at Arsenal and could leave the London club in one of the next transfer windows. According to Caught Offside, the Sweden international is willing to accept a loan move in order to get more playing time.

The same source says that Al Ittihad, Al Ahli, Juventus and AC Milan, managed by Ruben Amorim, are monitoring the situation of the former Sporting player — about to be overtaken by Luis Suárez — and could submit offers as early as January. Viktor Gyökeres signed a contract valid until 2030 and was bought by Arsenal for €66.9 million in 2025.

Having already made eight appearances for Arsenal, the 28-year-old has yet to score this season, having started only twice. Given the minutes played, Kai Havertz has been Mikel Arteta’s go-to man in the most advanced area of the pitch.

In the Premier League, after five matchdays, Viktor Gyökeres has played only 29 minutes across two matches. It is worth noting that the Gunners are in second place in the competition with 12 points, behind leaders Manchester City.

It should be remembered that last season, despite the Swede’s difficult adaptation to English football, the player made 55 appearances for the Gunners, scoring on 21 occasions, helping Arsenal win the Premier League and reach the Champions League final.
