GettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Following his arrival in a big-money transfer agreement with Sporting, Gyokeres has been eased into Arteta’s plans during pre-season friendly dates. He made his full bow for Arsenal when starting a 3-2 defeat to Villarreal on Wednesday.
GettyDID YOU KNOW?
Pressed further on when Gyokeres will be fully up to speed, Arteta added: “I hope days and every day in training I think he's getting a really good feeling. I think he's built connections as well outside, which I think is really important with players that are going to help him to be in the position that he needs to get in.
“His fitness level, I think he hasn't trained really with the team for two months, so he's done now six or five sessions, I think, before today. So, I think on Saturday, again, I think he will take another step and he will be in a better condition.”
