Viktor Gyökeres Breaks Arsenal Shirt Sales Record Days After Unveiling

Arsenal’s new signing, Viktor Gyökeres, has shattered the club’s all-time shirt sales record just days after being officially unveiled, according to a report by The Athletic.
The Swedish striker, who joined from Sporting CP for €63.5 million, has seen an unprecedented demand for his No.14 jersey—surpassing sales of fan favorites like Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, and club captain Martin Ødegaard.
Although final figures are still being tallied, early data confirms Gyökeres’ shirt has become the fastest-selling in Arsenal history, underlining the hype surrounding his arrival at the Emirates.
The 27-year-old was presented to fans at the Singapore National Stadium during Arsenal’s pre-season tour of Asia, receiving a thunderous welcome ahead of their friendly match against Newcastle United.
Much of the buzz has been driven by his decision to wear the iconic No.14 shirt, famously worn by club legend Thierry Henry. With the No.9 jersey already occupied by Gabriel Jesus, Gyökeres’ choice has struck a nostalgic chord with supporters and helped fuel the record-breaking sales.
As Arsenal prepare for the 2025/26 Premier League season, Gyökeres’ commercial impact is already setting high expectations for his on-pitch contributions in North London.
