"Viktor Gyokeres looks to be finally finding his feet in north London as Arsenal chase trophies in four competitions. It may have gone under the radar but the Sweden international is one of the Premier League's most in-form players. The forward has struggled at times since his move to Arsenal but there are signs that the 27-year-old has turned a corner and is starting to show how he scored 97 goals in 102 games for Portuguese side Sporting."
"Since the turn of the year, Gyokeres has scored six goals across all competitions - more than any other Premier League player. That stat may be a bit misleading as Arsenal have played 11 games in 2026, which is more than most other sides in the Premier League because of their involvement in the Carabao Cup, Champions League and FA Cup alongside their league fixtures. But that does not take away from the fact that Gyokeres is starting to look more confident."
"The Swedish international's double against Sunderland means he has now scored six goals in his past eight appearances in all competitions and has registered goals in back-to-back league games for the first time this season. The 27-year-old's form looks to be coming at the right time for the Gunners as they look to end their six-year wait for a major trophy. There are signs that Gyokeres could benefit from the return of Kai Havertz to the team."
Viktor Gyokeres has begun to find his feet at Arsenal and is showing signs of his prolific Sporting form. He scored six goals across all competitions since the turn of the year, more than any other Premier League player, though Arsenal have played more matches in 2026. Gyokeres has six goals in his past eight appearances and has scored in consecutive league games for the first time this season. His resurgence arrives as Arsenal pursue trophies in four competitions and could aid the club's bid to end a six-year major-trophy drought. Kai Havertz's return and deployment in midfield may further benefit Gyokeres.
