Arsenal directors in Lisbon to prepare the details of Viktor Gyokeres transfer
Arsenal have sent some of their executives to meet with Hasan Cetinkaya – the agent of Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres – in Lisbon, according to Portuguese outlet Correio da Manha.
The Gunners want to recruit the services of the Sweden international this summer and have submitted a formal transfer offer of €70 million plus bonuses to his agent.
Cetinkaya will then meet with Sporting president Frederico Varandas to table the bid Arsenal have brought.
The North London club are also offering Gyokeres a €12m signing-on fee and a five-year contract worth €7m per season.
The 26-year-old was involved in 67 goals in 52 games for the Portuguese top-flight club this term after weighing in with 54 goals and 13 assists, and Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is a huge admirer of his abilities in the final third.
However, the Gunners are not the only Premier League club keen on recruiting his services, with Chelsea and Manchester United also in the race.
