Gyokeres closing in on Arsenal move as final details fall into place

The Swedish international is expected to travel for his medical shortly, once the final terms are settled — a sign that an agreement with Sporting Lisbon is all but complete.

The transfer is set to cost Arsenal an initial €63.5 million, with a further €10 million in performance-related add-ons. Sources suggest that agent commission demands have been reduced to facilitate a swift conclusion, with all parties keen to have the deal signed off imminently.

Gyokeres has been a standout performer for Sporting over the past season, despite missing key Champions League fixtures due to a hamstring injury. His powerful presence and eye for goal have made him a priority target for Mikel Arteta as Arsenal look to sharpen their attacking edge ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.

The move reflects Arsenal's continued commitment to investing in proven talent, signalling a clear intent to compete at the highest level both domestically and in Europe. With negotiations now at an advanced stage, Gyokeres could become the Gunners' marquee signing of the summer in a matter of days.
