Arsenal officially announced the news of Yorke joining, and the British media Daily Telegraph disclosed some behind-the-scenes news about the deal.

Now Arsenal's signings are led by Berta, who was appointed Arsenal's sporting director in March, and the Italian has designed a multi-pronged strategy that is unprecedented in Arsenal's transfer operations in recent years.

In the early stage of this summer's transfer window, Berta simultaneously promoted the transfer negotiations of several forwards. Arsenal did not follow the traditional model of "locking a single target and continuing to follow up until an agreement is reached". According to the Telegraph, the negotiations between Sesco and Watkins lasted for several weeks, and the club also contacted several centers across Europe.

The advantage of this wide net is that it allows Arsenal to make the most wise decisions when choosing a striker, but also hidden risks.

For example, a few weeks ago, both Cesco and Yorkez believed that they were Arsenal's primary goal. In this transfer game, Berta must make sure that he does not play with the players' feelings. According to the Telegraph, Cesco is indeed the number one target in the minds of many members of the Arsenal recruitment team, but only Cesco himself knows whether Berta has properly handled this issue.

Arsenal finally decided to prioritize Yorke, which is favored by Berta, and the price is key. Yorke is cheaper than Sesco because Yorke is five years older.

Another reason is that the Swedish international expressed a strong transfer intention. Yorkecres and his team were willing to break with Portugal Sports at all costs to facilitate the transfer. Whether it is right or wrong, Sesco will never make the same fierce move in Leipzig.
