🚨 Arsenal will not sell Viktor Gyokeres unless they have a top-class replacement lined up first.
Julián Álvarez is viewed as the closest fit for Mikel Arteta's system, but his preference remains a move to Barcelona.
Ivan Toney is seen as a possible Gyokeres replacement rather than an upgrade on Kai Havertz.

From today Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums is known as North East Museums and we have a new visual identity to match.
We’ve been planning this for a while to better reflect our mission and commitments and the timing is perfect as we enter a new phase as an organisation. (1/3)
