Arsenal announced on its official channel on the 27th (Korea Standard Time) that they signed a long-term contract with Jockeres who played for Sporting Lisbon, Portugal. The specific conditions have not been disclosed, but the contract period is estimated to be five years and the transfer fee is estimated to be up to 73 million euros (about 118.7 billion won) according to local media. Jockeres wears the legend '14' which Thierry Henry wore. I will join the pre-season tour in Asia right away.
"I felt like Arsenal was the right team for me," said Jockeres. "When I played Arsenal last season, I could feel that they were a really strong team. It was very hard to deal with. Of course, Arsenal's history and huge fan base were the reasons for this."
Coach Mikel Arteta said, `We are very happy to bring Jockeres to Arsenal. His consistent performance and participation were excellent"Jokes' offensive point productivity says everything. I'm looking forward to what change he'll make, and I'm glad to be with him."

It was a long and long affair. Arsenal's top priority this summer has been to strengthen their front-line strikers, who have not been able to overcome the championship threshold. Last season Arsenal suffered a string of striker resources. Mikel Merino changed his position and showed better-than-expected performance, but Arsenal desperately needed a clear striker to take charge of double-digit scores to win.
Arsenal have been linked with a variety of strikers this summer. I sent love calls to Alexander Isaac, Victor Osimhen and Benjamin Seschko. It has become fixed due to transfer fees and other reasons.
Arsenal's choice was Jockeres. 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.

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. Joqueres was also very interested in reuniting with Amorim. Manchester United, which showed its worst performance last season, is aiming to reorganize its offense. It has already confirmed the signing of Brian Mbomo after Matheus Cunha. The pinnacle of the fire dragon was Yockeres. He was determined to recruit even with a high transfer fee.

The transfer fee was the problem. The two sides continued the tug-of-war. After recently signing a five-year contract with Arsenal, Jockeres gave up 2 million euros of his annual salary to meet the transfer fee Sporting wanted. Arsenal offered a bonus of 10 million euros for 62 million euros.
However, Sporting stuck to the basic transfer fee of 70 million euros. In the end, the negotiations stalled. Arsenal also came down from the negotiating table for now. Hecord said the Arsenal negotiating team, which visited Lisbon last weekend, returned to London.
In the meantime, Yockeres brought up the super-strong move of not attending training. Multiple Portuguese media outlets reported that `Jokes was instructed to arrive at Sporting's training ground 'Cristiano Ronaldo Academy', but in the end did not follow suit.' The Sporting squad departed for Lagos, where a pre-season training camp will be held, except for Jockeres.

Eventually, Yockeres' agent intervened. I gave up a 10% brokerage fee to complete the contract. Arsenal matched the amount Sporting wanted. That's how the negotiations seemed to end. Romano also expressed 'HERE WE GO SOON', saying that Arsenal and Sporting had an agreement'.
I fell into a mystery again. It was because of the bonus. Hecord 'Sporting wants the option clause in the €10 million bonus to be an easily achievable condition. Arsenal are reluctant to do so. According to Meisputball, Arsenal set €3 million for easy targets and €7 million for difficult targets. However, as Sporting demanded 10 million euros for an easy target, the negotiations fell into difficulty again.

Manchester United opened up Sporting's mind with a bold bet, but they couldn't open up Jockeres' mind. Jockeres is only Arsenal. As much as I broke up with my girlfriend and even cut my salary, I didn't give up until the end.
In the end, Arsenal raised the white flag at Sporting's request. On the 22nd, Fabrizio Romano, who is considered the most prestigious player in the European transfer market, will recruit Jockeres as a new striker. The agreement between all parties has been verbally completed' and the signature mark 'HERE WE GO' was floated. In fact, it means that the transfer has been confirmed. Romano continued 'The transfer fee is 63.5 million euros (about 103.1 billion won), including an option of 10 million euros (about 16.2 billion won). "Jockeres has a five-year contract, and he only wanted to go to Arsenal."
On the same day, the BBC, a British public broadcaster, also reported on Jockeres' trip to Arsenal. The BBC reported that negotiations to discuss details took longer than expected, with Arsenal hoping a deal would be made in time for the start of the Asian pre-season tour. However, Jockeres agreed to a five-year contract with Arsenal.
