TEAMtalk on MSN‘Workaholic’ goal machine ready to ‘sign for Arsenal’ if Viktor Gyokeres deal collapsesAston Villa striker Ollie Watkins would love to join Arsenal if the Gunners are unable to sign Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko.
Gyökeres’s final home outing under Amorim’s watch saw him plunder a hat-trick against Manchester City in the Champions League. The defending Portuguese champions were unbeaten across all competitions at the time Amorim was poached by United.
A deal has not been finalized for the Swedish striker, but it appears he has emerged as Arsenal's favored option in a summer where they have also been in negotiations with RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko. The Bundesliga side have held firm on their price tag for the young Slovenian striker, believed to be $94 million.

Yardbarker on MSN’Open to joining…’: INEOS handed Viktor Gyokeres lifeline as journo reveals his stance if Arsenal transfer collapsesWhile still prioritising his move to Arsenal, Viktor Gyokeres is not opposed to joining Manchester United if a deal fails to materialise with the Gunners.
However, the Portuguese giants are now demanding €70m (£60m/$82m) as the fixed amount and the remaining €10m (£9m/$12m) in add-ons. If Sporting stick to their stance, there is a good chance that Arsenal will ultimately end their pursuit of the 27-year-old forward.
