After modest beginnings and dropping down a level, ex-colleagues tell how the rise of Arsenal's new striker was based on grit and mindset

Arsenal have shared a heartwarming glimpse of new signing Viktor Gyökeres meeting his teammates for the first time, as the Swedish striker was welcomed into the squad during the club’s pre-season

Gyökeres has cost Arsenal an initial €63.5 million (£55.1 million, $73.5 million) from Sporting CP, which is set to rise by another €10 million (£8.7 million, $11.6 million) if easily achievable add-ons are hit.
