US EditionTottenham Have Shown Man United How They Can Complete Viktor Gyokeres Transfer
GREATER LONDON, ENGLAND, JUL 12 – Viktor Gyokeres is Arsenal's top striker target amid a transfer dispute with Sporting Lisbon, who demand €70 million; the 27-year-old has scored 54 goals last season, sources say.
- Viktor Gyokeres has gone on strike by refusing to report for Sporting Lisbon's pre-season training to force a transfer to Arsenal this summer.
- This standoff follows failed negotiations where Arsenal offered £65 million upfront plus £10 million in add-ons, but Sporting demands at least £70 million upfront.
- Sporting president Frederico Varandas denied any 'gentleman's agreement' on Gyokeres' fee and confirmed the player will be heavily fined and disciplined.
- Gyokeres has told Sporting he will not return and desires only to join Arsenal, while Arsenal’s sporting director Andrea Berta held talks in Lisbon last week but left without a deal.
- Negotiations are expected to ease as the transfer window progresses, suggesting Sporting may eventually compromise, but Arsenal must remain patient to complete the signing.
