Arsenal kicked-off their 2025–26 season with a narrow victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford. The game also witnessed the highly anticipated Premier League debut the Gunners’ new centre forward: Viktor Gyökeres.
The former Sporting CP striker spearheaded Arsenal’s attack from the start. All things considered, it was a lacklustre debut for Gyökeres, who failed to truly make an impact and struggled to get involved in the game. It’s clear that the Swede needs time to adapt to the fast-paced, physical style of the Premier League after dominating the less demanding Primeira Liga.
