Arteta struck gold on Arsenal Star worth millions more than Gyokerres

If this season has proven something for Arsenal, it is because they are desperately needing another striker in the team.

A combination of dull finish and a torrent of injuries to key offensive players left the Gunners at 15 points from Liverpool in the Premier League.

In addition, in the current state of things, the Reds have scored 17 more goals than the team of Mikel Arteta, which must desperately be addressed in summer.

Fortunately, this is something on which the club seems to work, because, in the last week about the last week, their supposed interest in Viktor Gyokerres has seriously intensified, even if he already has a player who is worth millions more than him in the team.

​​​​​How much Arsenal should pay for Gyokerres

Arsenal would have been interested in Gyokerres at points last summer, but it was really since the new sports director Andrea Berta revealed that things seem to warm up with regard to the Swedish superstar.

In addition, although there is a disagreement on the exact price that the sports CP could demand for its prolific attacker once the window is open, a recent report of athletics said it would probably be between 60 and 70 million pounds sterling.

Although the higher figure would undoubtedly represent an important financial investment by the Northern Londoners, it would be difficult to say that it is not a reasonable assessment of the Portuguese giants.

For example, since he moved to Lisbon in 2023, the former Coventry City star made 100 appearances for the club, totaling 8207 minutes, in which he found the bottom of the net 95 times and provided 28 assists.

In other words, the “power” born in Stockholm, as nicknamed by analyst Ben Mattinson, has an average of 1.23 goal involvement per game since his move to Lisbon, or one every 66.72 minutes, which is frankly absurd.

In all, it is not difficult to see why Arsenal is so interested in sign Gyokerres this year, although even if he joins 70 million pounds sterling, he will compete with someone with an even higher evaluation next season: Kai Havertz.

How many kai havertz is currently worth

Yes, believe it or not, the player in question is none other than Kai Havertz.

The former Chelsea star joined Arsenal for around 65 million pounds Sterling in the summer of 2023, but was then placed in the best most useful players of the Cies Football Observatory in world football earlier this year, with an amazing 130 million euros assessment, which is transformed at around 109 million pounds sterling.

Now, we know that for some of you, it will seem to be an absurd number, and although it is probably a little swollen, it would be difficult to argue that the German international has not improved his reputation and standing in the game since his initial move two years ago, so perhaps that a fairer price would be somewhere between the two.

That said, and although he can still divide opinion, the “magnificent” footballer, baptized by the scout of talents Jacek Kulig, was a practical player for the Gunners, especially since I climbed at the top half of last season.

In addition, before his injury in February, the poacher born in Aix-l’a after really enjoyed a sufficiently decent campaign leading the line, entering a total of 15 goals and five assists in 34 appearances over 2776 minutes of action.

This means that the “superb” striker, nicknamed by Arteta, was on average an attack on a goal every 1.7 games, or every 138.8 minutes, who, once again, for a makeshift striker in undoubtedly the most difficult league in the world, is not going.

In the end, Arsenal should always go out and sign Gyokerres when he seems to be a lean goal machine, but in Havertz, the club has a reliable backup that can also do a job in the middle of the park.
