Arsenal, who are on tour in Asia, played friendly matches between 2025 and 2026 in Singapore against AC Milan of Italy's Serie A and Newcastle United of England's Premier League (EPL) rivals. Arsenal moved from Singapore to Hong Kong on the 29th.
In Hong Kong, they face Tottenham in the North London Rival. Arsenal will face Tottenham at the Kai Tak Stadium on the 31st. It is the first time that the 'North London Derby' is held outside the UK.
Jockeres also joined in. Son Heung-min could make his Arsenal debut against Tottenham as soon as possible. Arsenal officially announced on the 27th that they will recruit Jockeres.
Jockeres joined his last training session in Singapore before moving to Hong Kong. Arsenal's colleagues constructed a row of two lines, 'human tunnel'. When he passed through, he patted him on the back and welcomed him. It was an Indian meal initiation ceremony.
Jockeres has a five-year contract. Legend Thierry Henry received just 14 baeburns. Arsenal decided to pay 63.5 million euros (about 101.5 billion won) as a basic transfer fee and 10 million euros (about 16 billion won) as an option to Portugal's Sport CP.

Jockeres returned to the England stage for the first time in two years. Making his professional debut with Swedish IF Bromapoykarna, he moved to Brighton in January 2018. However, he failed to make his EPL debut. He made his mark at Coventry in his third loan club, the English Championship (division 2), and his potential exploded after a full transfer.
Jockeres joined hands with Sporting of Portugal in July 2023. He has grown to be the hottest striker in Europe. During his two seasons at Sporting, he played in 102 matches in all tournaments and scored a whopping 97 goals. Jockeres, who scored 43 goals in his first season, swept 54 goals in his second season.
However, it was not an easy transfer. There was sport and labor. I also got Manchester United's love call. Coach Ruben Amorim, who led Sporting in November last year and took the helm of Manchester United, was 'Gegyo'.
However, Joquez turned his back on Amorim. He tried to recruit until the end, but Joquez insisted on going to Arsenal. The transfer was successful after a war of nerves with even the retreat blocked.
Jockeres was so serious about going to Arsenal that he broke up with his girlfriend who opposed escaping Sporting.
