Arsenal target Viktor Gyokeres has refused to rule out a late transfer this summer following his latest hat-trick against Farense.
The Gunners have had a relatively quiet transfer window up until this point with Riccardo Calafiori and David Raya being their only signings as of writing.
and the club is still open to the idea of signing a new striker if the right opportunity arises.
Kai Havertz has done a fine job at leading the line for Arsenal so far this season and Mikel Arteta also has Gabriel Jesus to rely upon once he returns to fitness.
While Arteta seems content with his forward options, it s no secret that the club have been looking at a number of different players throughout the summer.
Of those options is Sporting s Gyokeres who has been in fine goalscoring form since he arrived in Portugal last summer.
The 26-year-old has scored 49 goals in just 54 appearances for the club and he s already scored three goals in just six league matches this season.
He managed to score a hat-trick in his last game against Farense and when asked about his future, he left the door open for a potential move between now and the end of the window.
I think so, I’ll stay here, but you never know what’s going to happen, Gyokeres told reporters after the game.
It doesn’t just depend on me, but I feel very good here. There are things I don’t know, things happen quickly, but I’m not worried about that. I love being here.
