Viktor Gyokeres has not debuted at Arsenal, and already breaks records, though its transfer was formalized only 3 days ago. The Swedish T-shirt is raging among his new team fans, and the British never sold so many shirts of a player in such a short time, says A ball.
The fact that Sporting's former player also chose the historical number 14, although he preferred the number 9, which was unavailable, being worn by Gabriel Jesus, he also contributed to the conquest of the fans. The Swedish striker thus took the former issue of the “tunar” legend, Thierry Henry.
Viktor Gyokeres breaks records to arsenal just before debut
Arsenal has launched a campaign through which, until Thursday, it offers the number 14 and the name Gyokeres on the back of the shirt, so that fans have to pay for the shirt itself, about 115 euros, and not for extra -optations, which can reach up to 18.5 euros.
The request was so high that the official website of the “tunar” was blocked on the day they formalized the transfer of the Swedish and announced this special promotion. This T -shirt sales record is expected to continue to grow.
Gyokeres's transfer to Arsenal was one of the most anticipated this summer. For the signature of the Swedish with excellent numbers in the last two seasons he was in the race and Manchester United.
Gyokeres wanted to leave Sporting, but the Portuguese club did not want to respect a “gentleman agreement” with him. Finally, the Portuguese agreed to let the Swedish goalscorer leave.
Gyokeres is not the first experience in England, after evolving at Brighton, Swansea and Coventry.
Last season, the 27 -year -old Swedish played 52 matches in all competitions, scoring 54 goals and offering 13 decisive passes. Gyokeres was brought to Sporting in 2023 by coach Ruben Amorim.
