Arsenal, in particular, is in need of attacking reinforcements after missing out on signing a striker during the January transfer window. With Gyökeres’ reported price tag the Gunners face stiff competition from Manchester United and other European giants. However, the player’s desire to join a Champions League club could play a crucial role in determining his next destination.
