Viktor Gyokeres' true feelings on his next move has emerged in a new report after Arsenal take drastic action in the transfer saga.

Gyokeres is one of the most in-demand players this summer following his staggering goal-scoring exploits for Sporting CP in the past two seasons.

He scored an impressive 43 goals in his first campaign in Portugal under the tutelage of Ruben Amorim before he was appointed at Manchester United.

Last season, Gyokeres bagged a superb 54 goals in 52 games across all competitions, alerting Europe's elite, including Arsenal, Chelsea and Man United.

But it appears the Swede's preferred move is the Emirates as Mikel Arteta hopes to recruit a No.9 ahead of the 2025/26 season.

The Gunners, however, have taken drastic action in their pursuit of Gyokeres.

It comes after Sporting CP president X released an explosive statement, naming their price for the club's prized asset in doing so.

Gyokeres, however, still wants a move to the Premier League and wants to play in the Champions League.

That's according to a fresh report from Portuguese outlet Record, who claim Arsenal are 'leading' the pack to sign the 27-year-old.

Reports in Italy claim Juventus, who can offer Champions League football, are also keeping tabs on him.

Arsenal are not only after Gyokeres but also Benjamin Sesko, who has been strongly linked with a move to North London this summer.

Sesko, 22, netted 21 goals in all competitions for RB Leipzig last season and is wanted by Bayern Munich, too.

Despite his best efforts, Leipzig failed to qualify for either of UEFA's three club competitions, with a move away expected.

Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins is also on Arsenal's radar. He was subjected to a bid during the January transfer window, which was rejected.

Watkins, an Arsenal fan, has been a prolific scorer in England's top flight, scoring 75 Premier League goals for Villa since his switch from Brentford.
