Mikel Arteta was asked about Gyokeres after Arsenal’s friendly encounter with AC Milan in Singapore, and he provided an immediate response. Arteta’s press conference was featured on Hayters TV, and a reporter asked him: “Will Singapore fans expect to see a certain Viktor Gyokeres in the next game?”
Arsenal will fork out €63.5million (£54.8m), plus €10m (£8.6m) in add-ons for the 27-year-old, hoping that the former Coventry star will help them make the final jump to claiming the Premier League title.
Anders Limpar, who spent four years at Arsenal in the early 1990s, has unique insight into the former Coventry striker, having mentored him during his youth career at Swedish side Brommapojkarna. Limpar is confident that Gyokeres will make an immediate impact in Mikel Arteta 's team.
