Asked if he would leave Portugal this summer, Gyokeres said: "Maybe. In football, you never know. I'm not thinking about it. Let's see what happens. The most important thing is that I want to play for a team that really needs me."
"I spent many years in England without playing a single game at the highest level. So definitely moving to the Premier League is something I want to do. It would be a great revenge," Gyokeres added.
Arsenal and Gyokeres are now putting pressure on Sporting Lisbon to seal the deal. Despite the Portuguese club demanding £70m for the Swedish striker, Arsenal are optimistic they can complete the deal.
Gyokeres threatened to skip summer training with his Sporting teammates to push through a move. He clearly wants to return to England to prove himself in the Premier League after years of playing in England without being tested in the top flight.
Gyokeres previously played for Brighton but did not get to play. In 2021, the 27-year-old striker moved to Coventry and began to make his mark by scoring 41 goals in 110 Championship matches.
If all goes well, Gyokeres will be Arsenal's next notable signing after the contracts of Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Kepa Arrizabalaga and the upcoming Noni Madueke. Coach Mikel Arteta gradually completes the squad to conquer the title in the 2025/26 season.
