Arsenal transfer news: Viktor Gyokeres transfer approved as Karim Benzema call made

After Gabriel Jesus suffered an injury, Arsenal is in serious need of a new striker. The Gunners have lately been connected with moves for Viktor Gyokeres, Karim Benzema, and Bryan Mbeumo, all of whom are considered to be potential candidates for the position.

At this very moment, Arsenal is in desperate need of a striker.

Gabriel Jesus is the most recent player to suffer an injury while playing for the Gunners, who are having a difficult time in attack as injuries have begun to bite. Because of a bad knee injury, the Brazilian is going to be unable to participate in the most of the campaign.

In spite of everything, they were able to triumph in the North London derby on Wednesday because to the tremendous assistance provided by Tottenham forward Dominic Solanke. The former Bournemouth player scored an own goal, which brought the score even with the shot by Heung Min-son.

After that, Leandro Trossard was able to gain a significant three points, and in the aftermath, speculations regarding his move continued to circulate. Take a look at the most recent transfer rumours that have been circulating at Emirates Stadium during the previous twenty-four hours:

Gyokeres’s swoop garners Arteta’s approval

In a surprise move, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has given the go-ahead for the transfer of Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres. When it comes to forwards, the Gunners are in dire need of someone, and the Swede is considered to be the ideal candidate for the position.

L’Equipe, a French news site, reports that Arsenal are “no longer reluctant” to spend a significant amount of money on the player that Manchester United is interested in. The Gunners are now considering the possibility of putting Gyokeres’ release clause, which is built into his Sporting contract and is worth €100 million (£83 million), into effect.

Gyokeres is not the only player that Arsenal is considering buying in January; they are also looking at other players. Jonathan David, a forward for Lille, is also on the club’s list of potential targets, in addition to Alexander Isak, a top player for Newcastle.

Calls are made by Benzema.
After receiving instructions to join with Arsenal, former Real Madrid player Karim Benzema is not contemplating retiring from the sport. It has been communicated to the North London club by Rio Ferdinand that they should go for the Frenchman.

In an interview with TNT Sport, he offered the following statement: “I’d go and grab Benzema. Give me a loan for a period of six months, and I’ll take that.

In the meanwhile, Benzema plans to continue playing as he is already 37 years old. Despite the fact that the veteran still has 18 months left on his current contract with Saudi side Al-Ittihad, he has not established a time restriction during which he would retire from the sport.

The attacker Bryan Mbeumo, who now plays for Brentford, has also been mentioned in connection with Arsenal. This season, he has made 21 appearances in the Premier League and has scored 13 goals, making him one of the most impressive players in the league.

It would appear, however, that the Bees are not in the mood to sell. After being asked if his team would be able to sell Mbeumo this month, the manager of Brentford, Thomas Frank, responded, “No.” It is very simple to provide a solution to that query!
