Annex is still in the mind of 'Monster Goalkeeper'.
Alex Crook, a senior soccer reporter for TalkSport, said on the 19th (Korea time) that `I received a message 24 hours ago, and it was said that Jockeres told his family and friends that he would go to Arsenal.' "Manchester United are interested in Jockeres, but Arsenal can give them a chance to play in the European Champions League and win next season."
Jockeres is one of the hottest strikers this summer. Joquez, who has excellent physical and goal-scoring skills, has drawn attention by moving to Brighton since his professional debut with Bromapoicarna in Sweden in 2015. After a long loan spell, he moved to Coventry City in the English Championship (second division) and played as a main player.
Joquez exploded his potential by moving to Sporting in the 2023-2024 season. In his first season in Sporting, he played in 50 official games, scoring 43 goals and 14 assists and 57 offensive points. This was higher than Elling Holan (44), Kylian Mbappe (54), and Harry Kane (56) during the same period. This season has been even greater. Exploded 54 goals-12 assists in 52 games. It was a record of more than one goal per game.

In Sporting alone, Jockeres scored a whopping 97 goals and 26 assists in two seasons. It was simply a monster stat. Strikers from Portugal's Primera Liga, including Liverpool's Darwin Núñez, showed disappointment in the big leagues, but the stock price of Jockeres has risen day by day as high-quality front-line strikers have recently been a famine.
In particular, English Premier League clubs showed great interest. At first, it was strongly linked with Manchester United. Manchester United have manager Hu Beng Amorim. Amorim was joined by Jockeres in Sporting. He is a benefactor who has exploded his skills. Joquez is also very interested in reuniting with Amorim. Manchester United, which showed its worst performance last season, is aiming to reorganize its offense. After already confirming the signing of Matheus Kunae, Brian Mbommo was also close. Yokares is the pinnacle of the fire. He was determined to recruit even with a high transfer fee.
But Joquez was more interested in going to Arsenal than Manchester United. Portugal's Hekord reported on the 15th that Arsenal, tired of Sporting's demands, excluded Jockeres from the list of recruits, but Jockeres does not seem to mind. Arsenal are keeping an eye on Leipzig's Benjamin Seschko and Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitike instead of Jockeres.
There is something that needs to be preceded in order to go to Arsenal as Jockeres wishes. It's a transfer fee. Sporting want €80m, a demand that angered Jockeres.
There is a reason. In September last year, Yockeres signed a gentleman's agreement with Sporting. The buyout for Jockeres was €100 million, but senior club officials told Jockeres at the time that they would accept an offer of €65 million, including bonuses. Fabrizio Romano, who is considered one of the top authorities in the transfer market, said 'Jokes decided to stay with the team despite many offers last summer and winter. In return, Sporting promised to allow the transfer for a reasonable amount this summer. However, Sporting broke this and are demanding a higher amount, and the player is unhappy with the club's actions.
Broken heart, Yockeres took action. "I'll never run again!" he said. He said he would not go on strike if necessary. Then, Federico Varandas Sporting's chairman also confronted. Varandas is also tough. He added "Sporting will not tolerate intimidation and insults. You must now know me better.' Then, through his SNS, Yockeres posted 'A lot of stories are coming and going now, most of which are false. I will tell you my position when the time is right.'"

As the situation became complicated, Sporting reached out first. But nothing has been solved. According to Hecord, Jockeres rejected Sporting's offer of 'Let's meet and resolve the conflict'. Joquez and Sporting seem to be getting deeper and deeper in goals.
