ARSENAL’S DETAILED PLANS FOR VIKTOR GYÖKERES ARE DISCLOSED BY DAVID RAYA PRIOR TO THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE CHALLENGEDavid Raya,

the Arsenal goalkeeper, has recognised Victor Gyökeres’s challenge in anticipation of their Champions League match against Sporting CP on Tuesday night.

Since joining Sporting from Coventry City last year, the Swedish striker has been in stunning form, solidifying his status as one of Europe’s most prolific forwards.

Gyökeres has already scored 24 goals in just 19 appearances this campaign, and he scored an impressive 43 goals in all competitions during his inaugural season for Sporting.

His devastating finishing ability was further emphasised by his recent hat-trick in Sporting’s 4-1 victory over Manchester City in the Champions League.

expressed his confidence in Arsenal’s defensive strategy to mitigate Gyökeres’ threat during a press conference.

“We are aware of his strengths, including his scoring form, his one-on-one ability, and his ability to make runs in behind.” David Raya stated, “He is an exceptional player.” “We will endeavour to maintain his silence.”

We are unable to afford to provide him with any opportunities. It is imperative that we assume a defensive stance, and we aspire to maintain a perfect record.

Arsenal has been associated with a transfer for Gyökeres since last summer; however, they have elected to maintain their current attacking lineup.

Gyökeres’ extraordinary scoring streak and Arsenal’s earlier season struggles in front of goal have reignited speculation regarding a potential transfer at the conclusion of the season.

During his press conference, Mikel Arteta was also questioned about the Swedish international.

Nevertheless, the Arsenal manager refrained from making any direct comments regarding the player, instead emphasising the overall calibre of Sporting. “I comprehend the inquiry; however, they possess numerous distinctive attributes,” Arteta stated.

“That is the reason they are able to win games in a variety of ways.” Indeed, they have exceptional performers in that particular position.

Arsenal faces a critical challenge in their pursuit of a berth in the Champions League’s quarterfinal rounds. A victory in Lisbon would be a substantial stride towards establishing momentum in the competition.
