Another update on Gyökeres - Arsenal...
80 million euros in total. It is a quite high amount of money that's for sure. But on paper, he is worth it considering how amazing season he had. 54 goals, 13 assists in 52 games, like a dream...
The only question is "Will he maintain this effort in the Premier League too?". I hope he does. He has a Championship experience with Coventry. But not much in the Premier League. He is looking forward to playing there.
I think this is fear based on current events unfolding, personally I feel Arsenal were the cause of all this saga at the moment, they had the opportunity to actually agree this deal before it escalate to this level. Last summer Arsenal had the opportunity to get for less than €70m and they went ahead to spend the money on some players that weren’t necessary.
Sporting president already made it clear that anything short of this amount wouldn’t be acceptable which was actually I think was as a result of Arsenal been desperate and it was clear. The only thing here is whether the player will deliver, we have the likes of Nunez coming from that side for big money and didn’t deliver. Gyokeres was also at Brighton and was not able to deliver I hope this doesn’t goes same way
