Arsenal Target Gyokeres, Rodrygo, and Veiga in Summer

Arsenal are prioritizing the signing of a top striker this summer, with Sporting CP’s Viktor Gyokeres emerging as their main target following his prolific season in Portugal. The club is also interested in Real Madrid’s Rodrygo, with discussions reportedly including a possible swap for defender William Saliba, though Madrid remain hesitant about the valuation. In addition, Arsenal are pursuing a move for Spanish midfielder Gabri Veiga, currently at Al-Ahli, but face competition from Newcastle and other European clubs. Broader transfer activity is underway across Europe, involving high-profile players such as Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong. Chelsea have started their summer moves with player departures, while Manchester United and Newcastle are also active in the market. Manager Mikel Arteta has highlighted injuries and red cards as factors in Arsenal’s failure to secure the league title, underscoring the urgency of their summer recruitment.
