ARSENAL fans are convinced the club has unofficially announced a major signing while unveiling their new away kit.
Riccardo Calafiori, Gabriel Martinelli and Myles Lewis-Skelly promoted the jerseys they will be wearing in away matches this coming season during an Adidas photoshoot.
Arsenal ace Riccardo Calafiori teased fans of Sporting Lisbon star Viktor Gyokeres’ imminent arrival
Calafiori struck a pose that was very similar to Gyokeres’ signature celebration
And Calafiori, 23, struck a pose that strongly reminded supporters of a signature celebration made famous by the club’s biggest transfer target.
The versatile defender pulled the collar over his mouth and the photo was then shared by Adidas across social media.
That reminded Arsenal fans of Sporting Lisbon star Viktor Gyokeres’ popular celebration that sees him placing both hands over his mouth after scoring a goal.
Of course there is no indication that the Italy international was actually teasing an imminent done deal between his team and Gyokeres.
But that didn’t stop Gooners from storming social media and engaging in wild speculation.
One fan tweeted: ” It’s happening!”
Another commented: “Riccardo Calafiori is tired of waiting. He decided to announce the signing of Gyokeres.”
A third wrote: “Calafiori, we saw what you did there! Gyokeres is coming.”

And another posted: “Agent Calafiori.”
Arsenal are closing in on a £63.5million deal for Gyokeres with negotiations over add-ons at the final stages.
The striker is adamant he will never play for Sporting again and is currently staying away from training with his heart set on playing at the Emirates.
