A striking mentality has kept tenacious Gyokeres heading for the very top
Daily Express
|September 16, 2025
HIS journey to the top probably explains his mentality.
Viktor Gyokeres has had to fight to reach Arsenal, to become a Champions League striker and one of the most prolific in Europe.
And his mindset since arriving at the Gunners has blown people away because of his sheer determination, personality and drive to succeed.
Some describe it as the best they have ever seen — an unshakeable belief and desire to improve, prove himself and become one of the best.
The more he is written off and dismissed, the more he wants to show what he is about.
Whether that is extra training, extra gym sessions or work on his finishing and technique, Gyokeres is up for the fight.
