Viktor Gyokeres claims to be equal to Haaland ahead of Arsenal transfer

According to Bolasport.com, Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres made a surprising statement by comparing himself to Erling Haaland amid rumors of his move to Arsenal.

The Swedish forward has shown significant development since joining Sporting CP in summer 2023 — his combination of physical strength and speed makes it difficult for defenders to contain him.

Gyokeres who is currently under Ruben Amorim’s guidance possesses several advantages:

• Nearly perfect penalty execution
• High accuracy in front of goal
• Dominant physical strength
• Above-average speed

Arsenal leads the race for his signature in this summer’s transfer window — an interest that has been positively received by the Swedish striker who is attracted to the project being built by manager Mikel Arteta.
