Arsenal are in talks with Sporting over a move for Viktor Gyokeres, with a deal set to be concluded once a payment structure is agreed.
Sporting are looking for a total fee in region of ยฃ60-70m that would involve ยฃ10-15m of add-ons, that Arsenal are negotiating. If it goes that high, the English club are aiming for a kinder payment structure. Much of the discussion currently centres on how achievable the add-ons would be.
Mikel Arteta wanted a striker in before pre-season properly started, which is one reason for the sudden advancement. Arsenalโs football leadership had been involved in constructive discussion over whether to proceed with Gyokeres or RB Leipzigโs Benjamin Sesko, with Aston Villaโs Ollie Watkins a fallback, and it is understood that the difficulty of doing a deal for Sesko has ultimately swayed the decision.
