After spending nearly 80 million, Arsenal is the one who won the runner-up for three years in a row, the Gunners "champion puzzle" finally arrived

He won three Premier League runners-up in a row. Who can understand this feeling? Arsenal is just a breath, every year.

So this summer, Arsenal's goal is just one word: buy!

After signing Subimedi, Nelgou, Kepa and Maduaike, the total investment has been invested by about 140 million euros.

Now, the most critical puzzle seems to be in place. The protagonist is Victor Zhekelais.

On July 14, the famous football reporter David Ostein revealed that Arsenal signed Swedish striker Zhekelais.

According to official disclosure, the total value of the deal is 73.5 million euros, which includes a fixed transfer fee of 63.5 million euros, and a floating clause of 10 million euros. It is reported that in order to facilitate the transfer, both the player himself and the agent have made concessions in terms of personal income.

It can be seen that for this joint effort, everyone has indeed shown sincerity.

Then the question is, what level is this Zhekelais worthy of Arsenal's spending so much money?

Speaking of which, he has been quite tortuous. He didn't make much progress in teams like Brighton and St. Pauli in his early years, but he suddenly got enlightened in Coventry in the English Championship.

Portugal's sports vision is very toxic and signed it for 24 million euros in the summer of 2023. What's the result?

Last season, Dzekeles made 52 appearances for Portugal Sports in various competitions, contributing impressive data of 54 goals and 12 assists.

——With this efficiency, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a super-powered weapon in Portugal?

Of course, the good data is one aspect. Arsenal bought him mainly because he was attracted by his functionality.

or to put it more accurately, it is to solve the team's long-standing problem.

Arsenal last season played really well on the offense, just like mercury, but when he saw it, he always had a little bit of meaning. Jesus can pull and do the ball, but the goal efficiency is not bad. You always feel that at critical moments, no one can stand up and smash the ball into the net.

Keraish is different.

The big man who is 1.87 meters tall, just one stop in the penalty area, is a stake. He can carry the defender and make the ball, and he can turn around and rush. This time, Arsenal's style of playing in the frontcourt suddenly came to life.

Here we have to add that the Portuguese sports of Maizhe Kerais is a famous "black store" in European football - of course, this "black store" is definitely a compliment here.

Specially buy good products at low prices, practice for a few years, and then sell them at high prices, and the quality of "produced" is generally very high. From Figo, Ronaldo, to B Fee, to Nuno Mendes, they all came out of them.

So you see, although Arsenal spends a lot of money, he buys a "Portuguese Sports Certification", so he can feel more at ease.

After calculation, Arsenal's total spending this summer has exceeded 220 million euros, from the midfielder, goalkeeper to the front line, and all the positions that can be filled can be said to be armed to the teeth.

Pile the lineup like this, you should be able to get the championship trophy in the new season, right?
