🚨 SHOCKING REVEAL: “Don’t blame me—blame him! He’s the reason I rejected Manchester United,” Gyökeres declared. “Look, I know United’s a much bigger club than Arsenal—no debate there. But after that phone call and the things he said, I’ve decided to join Arsenal just to prove a point. He poked the lion—and now he’s about to get mauled. No disrespect to Amorim, but I won’t be signing for you. This isn’t about wages or legacy anymore… this is personal.” Bro really said that with his chest 😡. We needed a striker, he was all in… until that happened 🤦🙀😱

In a twist worthy of a Hollywood plot, Viktor Gyökeres has sensationally rejected a move to Manchester United, instead opting for Arsenal—and he’s not staying quiet about why. The Swedish striker made it clear that someone at Old Trafford triggered his decision, making this more than just a business transaction. It’s personal. His words were sharp, pointed, and left no room for misunderstanding: “Blame him—not me.”

 

Gyökeres admitted that United’s history, size, and status far outweigh Arsenal’s, but that didn’t stop him from walking away. According to him, a single phone call from a key United figure changed everything. Whatever was said in that conversation clearly crossed a line. In his own words, the person on the other end “touched the lion’s tail,” and now they’re about to face the consequences.

 

While Ruben Amorim and Manchester United had reportedly completed all the groundwork—including personal terms—the deal collapsed at the final hour. Instead of donning the red of United, Gyökeres chose the Emirates, not for glory or paycheck, but for something deeper: payback. “It’s not always about legacy or silverware,” he said. “This one’s about pride.”

 

The Arsenal faithful are buzzing with excitement, basking in what feels like a victory stolen from their bitter rivals. Meanwhile, United fans are left confused and angry, watching a sure signing slip through their fingers because of what appears to be internal friction. Gyökeres’ move has become the center of a drama that’s overshadowing most other transfer stories this summer.

 

The big question now? Who is “he”? Whispers in the corridors of Old Trafford suggest it might be a senior official, possibly someone in the coaching staff or boardroom, who either insulted or underestimated Gyökeres. Whatever the truth, the fallout is severe—United’s search for a new No. 9 just got a lot more complicated.

 

Manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly furious, blindsided by the sudden change in plans. He had been building his summer strategy around Gyökeres leading the line, a player he admired and wanted to integrate into his system. Now, those plans are in disarray, and the hunt for a striker restarts under tense conditions.

 

Over at Arsenal, Mikel Arteta is quietly celebrating. While United were busy unraveling, Arsenal were working the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. With a motivated Gyökeres joining the ranks, the Gunners may have just landed a wildcard capable of tipping the balance next season.

 

As for Manchester United, the reaction is raw and real. Fans feel betrayed, confused, and increasingly disillusioned with the club’s inner workings. What looked like a done deal turned into a public humiliation. Once again, United finds itself at the center of a self-inflicted storm.
