Arsenal transfer news LIVE: Gunners locked in £67m Gyokeres battle, Gabriel's new deal, Sesko's HUGE price tag
Two for the price of one Former Liverpool and Real Madrid striker Fernando Morientes has told CasinoHawks, who offer the latest online casinos, that Arsenal need to sign ex-Newcastle forward Ayoze Perez. He said: 'If Arsenal want a striker from LaLiga, a Spaniard who comes to mind right now is Perez. 'He left Betis for Villarreal, and he's become desirable for the big teams because he's scored a lot of goals and is playing very well. 'Another name is Alexander Sorloth, at the start of the season I thought he was going to be one of the most important strikers in our league, 'If you dig a little deeper into the search for players who are starting to emerge they're cheaper, so you have to make that decision. 'Emerging players are cheaper, but you need players that can instantly perform in the Premier League.'

Alexander Sorloth Nets Treble Off Bench As Atletico Madrid Thrash Girona
Alexander Sorloth showed once again why he is such a dangerous option off the bench for Atletico Madrid as he came on to score a hat-trick in under half-an-hour in a 4-0 win at Girona on Sunday in La Liga. Diego Simeone's side continued their Club World Cup preparations in a dead rubber league match at Montilivi, with Atletico locked into third place and Girona safe from relegation. Introduced in the 62nd minute for Antoine Griezmann, Sorloth broke the deadlock after 68 minutes. Clement Lenglet extended Atletico's lead before Sorloth struck two more late on to reach 20 La Liga goals, 12 of those as a substitute. Listen to the latest songs, only on Sorloth hit four goals earlier this month against Real Sociedad, with the first three of those scored by the 11th minute, making it the earliest hat-trick in La Liga history.

Soccer-Sorloth hat-trick guides Atletico to 4-0 win at Girona
(Reuters) -Striker Alexander Sorloth came off the bench to score a hat-trick in the second half and help Atletico Madrid wrap up their underwhelming season with an easy 4-0 win at lowly Girona on Sunday. With Barcelona having secured the title, there was not much to play for at a half-empty Montilivi stadium where two depleted squads squared up in a game that will not live long in the memory. Atleti manager Diego Simeone decided to leave several key starters on the bench, including goalkeeper Jan Oblak who with 30 goals conceded in 36 games, finished the season with the lowest goals-to-games ratio for the fifth time in his career. Atletico dominated possession but it took them 68 minutes to break the deadlock through Sorloth's close-range strike after Girona made a bad mistake and Rodrigo De Paul set up the Norwegian to tap the ball into an empty net. Defender Clement Lenglet headed in a rebound in the 87th minute before Sorloth took advantage of two quick counters to score twice in added time. In the final weekend of the season, Barca, who host Athletic Bilbao later on Sunday, top the standings with 85 points, one point ahead Real Madrid, with Atletico finishing their LaLiga campaign in third place on 76 points. Athletic Bilbao and Villarreal complete the top five line-up of teams who will represent Spain in next season's Champions League. Girona, who last season were the surprise packages of LaLiga, ended 16th in the standings on 41 points, one clear of the relegation spots. (Reporting by Fernando Kallas, editing by Ed Osmond)

"We played a good game, which will be useful for the Club World Cup in the US that starts in less than an month because we will play many afternoon games under this same heat. Sorloth is a machine and he doesn't need many chances to score," Atletico defender Axel Witsel told Movistar Plus. Atletico are in a tough Group B at the new-look 32-team tournament starting next month, along with Champions League finalists Paris St Germain, South American champions Botafogo and MLS side Seattle Sounders.
