🚨 SHOCKER‼️: “Don’t look at me—blame him. He’s the reason I said no to Manchester United. Sure, United’s a much bigger club than Arsenal, no doubt. But after that phone call and everything that came out of his mouth? I’m going to Arsenal just to prove him wrong. He poked the lion—now he’s gonna get mauled. Much respect to Amorim, but I’m not signing for you. This isn’t about money or legacy anymore… it’s personal.” Nahh, no way he just did that 😡. We were this close to locking down a striker—and then he fumbled the whole thing 🤦🙀😱

In a twist no one saw coming, Viktor Gyökeres has walked away from a near-complete move to Manchester United and is now heading for Arsenal instead. The Swedish striker, who had been closely linked with the Red Devils for weeks, has dropped a fiery statement making it clear that someone at Old Trafford pushed him over the edge—intentionally or not.

 

“Blame him, not me,” Gyökeres fired off, putting the blame squarely on an unnamed figure within the Manchester United camp. According to him, United might be the bigger club historically, but a single phone call turned admiration into animosity. That one conversation shifted his whole trajectory—and Arsenal are now reaping the benefit.

 

Apparently, the striker wasn’t deterred by trophies or the allure of Champions League football. Nope—this was deeply personal. Gyökeres is choosing to wear Arsenal red out of spite, with vengeance glittering in his eye. He’s made it a mission: to make “him” regret whatever was said in that fateful phone call.

 

The football world is now in chaos trying to figure out who the mystery man is. All fingers are pointing toward a key United figure—maybe someone high up or a vocal critic who dared to doubt Gyökeres’ potential. That gamble now looks catastrophic, as the striker has weaponized rejection into motivation.

 

Manchester United fans, understandably, are flipping tables. Reports say everything had been sorted—personal terms agreed, contract ready to be signed. Then boom: one call and it all blew up. From locked in to locked out, United’s dream of bringing in Gyökeres has crumbled at their own doorstep.

 

Meanwhile, across North London, Arsenal fans are dancing in the streets. While United were focused on making noise, Arteta and Edu were moving in silence, snatching up a striker who’s now burning with a desire to prove everyone wrong. This isn’t just a signing—it’s a statement. And a dangerous one.

 

There’s no sugarcoating it—this is a gut punch for United. Amorim had been planning around Gyökeres, slotting him right into his summer rebuild. Now he’s scrambling, and the fans? They’re left muttering “what just happened?” over their morning coffees. It’s chaos, it’s crisis, and it’s classic United mismanagement.

 

From what looked like a smooth transfer to an emotional detour, Gyökeres has made the Premier League narrative even juicier. Arsenal didn’t just get a striker—they got a man on a mission. As for United… well, they may have just created a monster.
