Viktor Gyökeres has reportedly decided that his top priority is to join Arsenal this summer.
 

The 27-year-old striker has attracted interest from several top European clubs, especially Arsenal and Manchester United.

Although there is a lot of speculation, it now seems that things are heating up regarding the Sweden international's future.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that Viktor Gyökeres' priority is a summer move to Arsenal.

Despite Manchester United showing strong interest and having made multiple calls to his representatives, Gyökeres has made it clear he is not keen on joining their project.

The Gunners have a clear advantage over the Red Devils, as they can offer Champions League football next season — something believed to be crucial in the Swede's decision.

Reliable journalists Paul Hirst of The Times and Jamie Jackson of The Guardian also report that Gyökeres prefers a move to Mikel Arteta's side, with a potential United switch already ruled out.

There is now growing expectation that Arsenal will step up their pursuit of a new world-class striker, with Gyökeres currently emerging as the top option.
