Arsenal faced Inter Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday, coming off a disappointing draw in the Premier League.
However, they showcased an impressive performance, hardly breaking a sweat, and secured a 3-0 victory. Gabriel Jesus made a strong return with two goals, while Viktor Gyokeres, despite a lackluster previous match, scored with a remarkable strike.
Arsenal Pursues Exciting Talent for Gyokeres
Despite building one of the top squads globally in recent years, questions linger over Arsenal’s striker position. Though Gyokeres has joined the squad, he has yet to make a significant impact. Meanwhile, while Jesus scored twice in Milan, his injury history raises concerns about consistency.
Nevertheless, Arsenal reportedly has their sights set on a promising young player who could invigorate Gyokeres’ performance. Recent reports indicate that Mikel Arteta is particularly interested in Arda Güler.
According to sources, Güler is a top target for Arsenal, with the club eager to enhance their attacking options. However, Real Madrid seems reluctant to let the talented youngster leave, especially since he is currently happy in Spain. Reports suggest that acquiring him could cost around £86 million.
Güler’s Potential to Boost Gyokeres
Güler’s elite creative abilities could greatly benefit Gyokeres. This season, he has provided 11 assists in just 31 appearances, averaging one assist approximately every 2.81 games. This performance is remarkable, especially for a player of his age.
Additionally, metrics illustrate Güler’s status as one of the top midfielders in La Liga for chance creation and assists. As described by journalists, he is a “generational talent” likely to improve even further.
Envisioning Arsenal with a playmaker of Güler’s caliber suggests that Gyokeres would find himself scoring more often. Beyond his creativity, Güler has a goal-scoring threat, having netted three goals this season and six last year, making him a dual threat on the field.
In conclusion, while signing Güler may require a substantial financial commitment, Arsenal should pursue this opportunity as he possesses the potential to elevate not only Gyokeres but the entire team.
