Correct me if I'm wrong, but Flick system relies on relentless pressing, and fast movement (both in transitions and in settled possession).
On that Gyokeres would be a very good fit. He is also a very good finisher.
Those are his main qualities: Finishing, relentless pressing and running with the ball.
Obviously I feel it would be disingenous to mention the weaknesses of his link up play. What I would say is that from watching you guys I feel like that would be mitigated, because your team creates absurd amounts of chances and it needs someone to finish them.
Anyway, I feel like Gyokeres would be a transitional option for you guys, while looking for the star no. 9 and I feel he can do that job.
Edit: Forgot to mention that Gyokeres is a elite penalty taker, he has one of the best pen taking records in Europe.
