Arsenal Intensify Moves for Gyokeres and Eze

Arsenal are intensifying their recruitment ahead of the new season, with a primary focus on signing a top striker and a creative midfielder. Negotiations continue with Sporting CP for Viktor Gyokeres, with personal terms reportedly agreed, but complications have arisen due to agent clauses and Sporting's high transfer fee demands. Eberechi Eze of Crystal Palace has become a key target, with Arsenal engaging in talks over a player-plus-cash deal as Eze is eager to join for Champions League football. The club has temporarily paused its pursuit of Real Madrid's Rodrygo to focus on other targets. In defense, Arsenal face competition from Valencia, as Cristhian Mosquera considers a contract renewal despite interest from North London. Arsenal aim to finalize key signings before their pre-season tour to Singapore to strengthen the squad and close the gap to the Premier League champions.
