Arsenal’s pursuit of Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres has taken a dramatic turn, as a major update has just been issued on the long-running saga.
The Gunners have spent the entire summer working to bring the prolific Swedish international to the Emirates, and fresh reports now reveal that negotiations have accelerated behind the scenes. Talks have reportedly reached an advanced stage, with personal terms agreed and only minor details left to finalize.
Gyökeres, who scored over 40 goals for club and country last season, is viewed as Mikel Arteta’s priority signing to lead Arsenal’s frontline. Sources close to the deal suggest the official announcement could be imminent, as the striker prepares for a medical in London.
The transfer, valued at around €73.5 million, could be confirmed within days, marking one of the biggest signings of the summer window.
