Arsenal s important targets are refusing to return to the team for training, and they have strong willingness to transfer

Zhekelais refused to return to the team to train and was determined to join Arsenal.

According to TA, Portugal Sports forward Jekelais has made it clear that he will not participate in the team's pre-season training for the new season and strongly hopes to transfer to Premier League powerhouse Arsenal as soon as possible. The 27-year-old Swedish international has expressed his determination to Portuguese sports president Frederico Valandas: he will refuse to represent the team in any preseason. This decision has also been informed by the coaching staff and teammates. Dzekelish believes that he had previously reached an agreement with the club to allow him to leave the team at a base transfer fee of €60 million plus an additional clause of €10 million, but now he feels "betrayed" because the club unilaterally revoked the agreement.

Although Arsenal is willing to pay transfer fees that exceed this amount, as of now, the two sides have not reached a final agreement.

Since joining Portugal Sports in 2023, Zhekelais has quickly grown into one of the hottest scorers in Europe. He scored 97 goals in 102 games, performed extremely efficiently and helped the team win the Portuguese Super League championship. His outstanding performance has also attracted the attention of many giants, and Arsenal regards him as one of the most important signing targets this summer.

Arsenal coach Arteta hopes to create a more competitive front lineup in the new season to strive for the Premier League championship. Zhekelais is considered the best candidate to fill the offensive vacancy, and his speed, shooting skills and smell in front of the goal are highly consistent with the rhythm of the Premier League.

If the transfer goes well, Dzekelish will become another important reinforcement for Arsenal this summer after Martin Zubimendi, Christian Nurgou, Kepa and the upcoming Noni Maduaike.

At present, Zhekelais' attitude is very clear - he only wants to join Arsenal, which has also brought the transfer negotiations to a critical stage. Fans are looking forward to this efficient shooter who can put on the Gunners' jersey as soon as possible.
