The Sweden striker has lost his place in Mikel Arteta's starting XI and is yet to score when called upon, with Mikel Merino now seemingly ahead of him as back-up to Kai Havertz.
After arriving in a £62million deal in 2025, Gyokeres has never truly passed the eye test for many fans despite netting 20 goals in all competitions last season.
Reports have started to circle that the 28-year-old is considering a January exit.
Speaking on Friday, Arteta stood by his player and said: "Viktor transmits an incredible will and determination and work rate to improve, help the team.
“That's Viktor every single day, regardless of his position, whether he scores a goal or not. And that's why he's always an option to play."
However, speaking on talkSPORT, football broadcasters Flex and Rory Jennings were less convinced.
Flex said: "I think he'll be gone by the end of the season. He scored a lot of goals last season - but he was just playing for a really good team."
Jennings said: "I think he's a complete dud. He's a spent force.
"He's just not good enough. He's obviously not good enough to play for Arsenal."
Jennings added: "There was a problem at Arsenal. They thought they solved it when they signed him. But they did not solve the problem.
"They have the answer to these problems and they're not using it. I feel like Max Dowman just has to play at this point."
