The familiar rivals Viktor Gyokeres will likely face when he makes his debut in an Arsenal shirt

The Gunners have been trying to strengthen their forward line for most of the summer transfer window with attempts to bring RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko to the Emirates falling apart before a deal for Gyokeres was agreed after weeks of negotiations. Arsenal finally secured their striker in a £55m deal, which could rise to £65m with related add-ons, and Gyokeres passed a medical on Saturday 26 July before flying out to Singapore to meet up with the squad for their pre-season tour. Mikel Arteta's side have been strengthening during this transfer window with Martin Zubimendi, Noni Madueke, Christian Norgaard, Cristhian Mosquera and Kepa Arrizabalaga already secured before Gyokeres' signing. Adding the Swedish into the mix and the Gunners now seemingly have enough depth in their squad to compete on multiple fronts and finally maintain a title challenge. A period of consistency and improvement under Arteta has seen them finish second in the table in each of the last three years, but the manager hopes to take his team one step further and secure a top-flight title for the first time since the 2003/04 season. Gyokeres could be a major part of that challenge with the Swedish forward, who scored 39 goals and made seven assists for Sporting last season, tasked with leading the line and netting the bulk of Arsenal's goals this year. He will need to hit the ground running as the Gunners open their campaign with a flurry of difficult fixtures that could make or break their season at the first hurdle. With four pre-season matches to play ahead of the Premier League's return, Gyokeres has time to bed himself into the line-up and create the vital links with his creative teammates. But when will he make his Arsenal debut? When will Viktor Gyokeres make his Arsenal debut? Mikel Arteta decided against throwing Gyokeres into the mix straight away as the Gunners defeated Newcastle United 3-2 in a pre-season friendly on Sunday 27 July. The match, part of Arsenal's Asia tour, took place at the Singapore National Stadium where Gyokeres was unveiled as a new Gunner, though he did not feature in the game. Evidently, Arteta decided that the match was too soon to hand him a first appearance, so Gyokeres could play his first game in an Arsenal shirt on Thursday 31 July at the Kai Tak Sports Park, Hong Kong against North London rivals Tottenham. When will he make his Premier League debut? Though Gyokeres is likely to play at least a couple of friendlies for Arsenal in the build-up to the new Premier League season his first, full debut for the club will be on the opening weekend of the season. Arsenal take on Manchester United at Old Trafford in the headline match on Sunday 17 August with kick off at 4.30pm.

‘I can say I've completed the Triple Crown' – Luke Littler earns first World Matchplay title after comeback success

Littler claimed a hard-fought 18-13 victory at the Winter Gardens to become the fifth player to win the PDC Triple Crown – Phil Taylor, Michael van Gerwen, Gary Anderson and Luke Humphries having also won World Championship, Matchplay and Premier League titles. Wade was in his seventh Matchplay final 18 years on from his solitary success in 2007, which came six months after Littler was born. We need your consent to load this Social Media content.

Please review your details and accept them to load the content Littler's scoring power in a high-quality contest proved decisive – he hit 17 180s to Wade's six in averaging 107 – and set a new tournament record of 64 maximums, beating Adrian Lewis' previous best of 56. 'It means absolutely everything,' Littler told Sky Sports after winning the last four legs to hold the Phil Taylor Trophy aloft. 'I idolise Phil, he's come here 16 times and won it. Now my name is on this trophy – and I can say I've completed the Triple Crown. 'Since I started on the Tour and got my Tour card I've always said to myself, 'as long as I win one of every major I'll be happy.' 'I've only got a few left to tick off and I'll definitely chase the majors I haven't won yet.' Littler had to mount another comeback 24 hours after losing the first five legs of his semi-final to Northern Ireland's Josh Rock. Wade stormed into a 5-0 lead but did not have a single dart at a double in the second mini-session as Littler levelled in style. The 42-year-old left-hander produced an 11-darter in the next, but Littler responded by winning successive legs to lead for the first time at 7-6. Wade managed to keep in touch, helped by a bull finish in the 19th leg, and fought back from a double break down to cut the gap to just one at 14-13.

'A little bit,' Littler said when asked if he had felt in control. 'Five-nil down once again, I said, 'I've been here before, what are you doing?' 'But I managed to pull it out of the bag and win the next five. I've shown I can come back from 5-0 or 7-3 down. 'I'm happy I can pull myself out of these scorelines, but I don't want to be 5-0 down again. 'James started to drop off a bit and I started to find my best darts.' By winning the title 18-year-old Littler became the youngest champion in Matchplay history, six years younger than Wade when he lifted the title.
