Man Utd 'Close to Hijacking' Gyokeres' Arsenal Transfer with Bombshell Late Bid

PORTUGAL, JUL 20 – Negotiations between Arsenal and Sporting CP stall over transfer fee add-ons while striker Viktor Gyokeres remains determined to join Arsenal, rejecting Manchester United interest amid ongoing summer talks.

  • A £55 million fixed fee plus £8.6 million in add-ons was agreed by Arsenal, with Gyokeres finalising personal terms on a five-year contract.
  • Amid stalled talks, Sporting CP insist all £8.6 million in add-ons be easily triggered, while Gyokeres has taken forceful action.
  • Denials surfaced that Fabrizio Romano, transfer expert, said `he's not aware of a bid from United, nor any club-to-club talks`, and he confirmed Gyokeres only wants to join Arsenal.
  • On their pre-season tour, Arsenal started without Gyokeres, and negotiations remain unresolved.
  • Progress is expected next week, with Gyokeres joining team training soon.
