Does Viktor Gyokeres deserve more time at Arsenal?
Gyokeres, meanwhile, actually out-scored Alvarez last season, even if many fans and pundits will feel he was a little underwhelming in his first season at the Emirates Stadium.
The former Sporting Lisbon man was boasting insane scoring figures during his time in Portugal, netting 97 goals in 102 appearances in total.
In his first season at Arsenal, meanwhile, Gyokeres finished with 21 goals in 55 games, with the Premier League clearly proving a big step up for him.
Perhaps after a year to settle and adjust he can do better in 2026/27, but it’s easy to see why Arsenal might also be tempted to use him to boost their chances of landing Alvarez, even if the move might not be popular with everybody.
