In a major boost to Arsenal’s attacking power, Swedish striker Viktor Gyökeres is officially set to join the Gunners. Fabrizio Romano has given his signature “Here we go!” — confirming a verbal agreement between all parties involved.
According to reports, Sporting CP have accepted Arsenal’s final offer of €63.5 million plus €10 million in add-ons, bringing the total potential fee to €73.5 million. The deal also includes a reduction in agent commission, which helped smooth negotiations after weeks of speculation.
Gyökeres is expected to sign a five-year deal at Arsenal, committing his long-term future to Mikel Arteta’s project. Sources close to the player say he was determined to join Arsenal from the start, rejecting interest from several top European clubs. “He only wanted Arsenal,” one insider confirmed.
