Arsenal fans are already getting excited about the possibility of a debut for Viktor Gyokeres, as a transfer gets closer.
The Sporting CP star has been a clinical presence in recent seasons, and the Gunners are looking to use that to their advantage.
As it stands, Arsenal are closing in on a deal to sign Gyokeres, though all of the details are far from complete, and there are still some hurdles to jump over.
Despite that, the fact that Andrea Berta is pushing on with a deal to sign the Swedish international has already got some supporters excited.
A view to a possible debut for the striker has some fans already dreaming of an ideal start for Viktor Gyokeres at Arsenal.
When Viktor Gyokeres could make his Arsenal debut
Should Arsenal sign Viktor Gyokeres this summer, then he will be ready for a long-awaited Premier League opportunity.
The 27-year-old may join early enough for Mikel Arteta to give him an opportunity in Arsenal’s pre-season.
While that could give him a taste of the North London Derby, as well as clashes against AC Milan and Newcastle, there is also a view to his full debut.
That is set to come against Manchester United, as Arsenal’s Premier League fixtures have put them away at Old Trafford in the opening match.
The Arsenal and Man United rivalry has plenty of history behind it, but there is also a storyline behind Gyokeres and a reunion with former manager Ruben Amorim.
That will no doubt cause plenty of talking points, with it being a tough start to life for a player making the move.
It may cause some doubt over whether Gyokeres will start immediately, with Kai Havertz set as a potential starter instead.
Nevertheless, there is some excitement from fans about that potential debut at Old Trafford.
