Arsenal and Sporting CP have finally struck an agreement for the transfer of Viktor Gyokeres.
The Gunners will pay a fixed fee of around £55m (â¬63.5m) and â¬10m in add-ons for the striker.
According to football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, Gyokeres’ agent agreed to waive a commission he was due from the deal.
Romano wrote on X: “The deal between Arsenal and Sporting for Viktor Gyökeres is now being sealed tonight with all parties involved.
“After agent’s decision to reduce his 10% compensation, Arsenal will pay initial fee worth â¬63.5m plus â¬10m add-ons being completed.”;
This means Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has finally gotten the striker he set out to bring in this summer.
Arteta was also keen on RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko, but a deal proved difficult to do.
