Arsenal are reportedly ready to listen to offers for Viktor Gyokeres in the upcoming transfer window, with the striker finding game time hard to come by at the North London club.
Following a debut campaign in which he scored 21 goals in 55 appearances across all competitions, Gyokeres has fallen down the pecking order in Mikel Arteta’s squad, having started just two matches for the Gunners this season.
In addition to his reduced role, the Swede has struggled in the final third in the ongoing campaign.
According to a report from Tutto Juve, the higher-ups at Arsenal are considering whether Gyokeres should still remain in Arteta’s squad.
The 28-year-old started the Gunners’ 3-0 home win over Lille in Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League clash.
However, he failed to impress, as he registered just 12 touches, zero shots, and completed six passes from eight attempts before being replaced in the 65th minute for Kai Havertz, who has been Arteta’s first choice this season.
While it remains to be seen what the future holds for Gyokeres at the Emirates, the report adds that the Gunners would like to recoup close to the £64 million they paid to sign him from Sporting CP.
Juventus are reportedly interested in signing the striker but are not close to the asking price of the Premier League champions.
Elsewhere, intermediaries have reportedly begun exploring possible destinations in Serie A and Bundesliga, particularly with the 2027 summer transfer window in mind.
The outlet further stressed Arsenal would carefully monitor Gyokeres’ performance in November and December before deciding whether to sell him.
