Arsenal and Sporting hope to agree a deal for Viktor Gyokeres before the striker is due to report for pre-season training on Friday. An agreement is yet to be struck between the clubs but negotiations are ongoing.

Things look very promising for Arsenal on the Viktor Gyökeres front, even though an offer has been turned down.

A deal has not been finalized for the Swedish striker, but it appears he has emerged as Arsenal's favored option in a summer where they have also been in negotiations with RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko. The Bundesliga side have held firm on their price tag for the young Slovenian striker, believed to be $94 million.
