Can he go to Arsenal and score 20 goals this season? They have desperate need for someone, but I don't think those goals are guaranteed."
His average of 159 minutes per goal also ranks favourably, being the 14th-best among players with 50 or more Premier League goals once penalties are removed from their tallies. Quite simply, under Pep Guardiola, the 25-year-old hasn’t needed one.

And while his 141 goal contributions (95G, 45A) in 236 appearances are clear evidence of end product, what makes him unique are his qualities surrounding the numbers. There may be more business to come, with the Gunners still in the market for reinforcements that will add depth to their ranks ahead of a return to the Europa League in 2022-23.

Mikel Arteta added: “I’m very excited. The club has done a tremendous job to recruit a player of this stature. I know Gabriel personally very well, and we all know him well from his time in the Premier League and being really successful here.
