Viktor Gyokeres is set to join Arsenal; the Swedish forward scored 39 league goals last season - more than any other player in Europes top eight leagues - but are goals in the Portuguese top-flight a fair judge of quality?

Arsenal are on the verge of signing Viktor Gyokeres, with the Swedish striker expected in London on Friday to finalise his move from Sporting CP. The Gunners have agreed a £63.8 million (€73.5m) deal and plan to integrate him into their pre-season tour in Singapore.

Football coach and pundit Laurindo Filho has lambasted Arsenal-bound forward Viktor Gyokeres for his 'lack of professionalism' towards Sporting CP during his transfer saga.

Mikel Arteta believes Gyokeres is the ideal candidate to solve Arsenal's striker issue, with the former Coventry City forward racking up an incredible tally of 97 goals in 102 matches in two seasons in Portugal, firing Sporting CP to two league titles in the process.

Arsenal are believed to have finally secured a full agreement with Sporting CP over the transfer of prolific striker Viktor Gyökeres after belatedly settling on suitable add-ons.

New video has emerged of Arsenal starlet Myles Lewis-Skelly reacting to the news that the Gunners are nearing a deal to sign Viktor Gyokeres. Standard Sport understands the Gunners are ‘putting the finishing touches’ on a deal to bring in the prolific Swede, currently of Sporting CP, after protracted negotiations.

With Bryan Mbeumo now through the door, Manchester United will switch their focus to signing an out-and-out striker, and a report has revealed yet another opportunity to beat Arsenal to Sporting CP’s Viktor Gyökeres.
