US EditionViktor Gyokeres' Proposed Move to Arsenal in Danger of 'Complete Collapse'
PORTUGAL, JUL 15 – Arsenal's agreement to sign Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting CP includes complex clauses that reduce payments to third parties, with the initial fee around £63.5 million plus add-ons.
- Viktor Gyokeres' proposed transfer to Arsenal in summer 2025 faces a serious risk of collapsing due to stalled negotiations in London.
- Negotiations broke down over Sporting Lisbon's demand for a £10 million bonus with easily attainable targets, which Arsenal resists including in the deal.
- Gyokeres has refused to attend Sporting's pre-season training and is prepared to strike to force his transfer, while his agent waived about £6 million in commission to aid the deal.
- The clubs were close to agreeing on an initial £55 million fee plus £7.4 million in add-ons for Gyokeres, who has agreed a five-year contract and hopes to join Arsenal for their pre-season tour.
- If the transfer fails, all scenarios remain open, while Coventry City stands to gain a 10 percent profit share and Sporting expects a net fee between £48.6 million and £55.9 million.
