Sporting CP’s very public demands are expected to be satisfied thanks to Viktor Gyökeres’s direct intervention.

The two clubs have agreed a deal worth up to £15m for the Denmark international midfielder. Arsenal will also decide whether to formalise a move for Chelsea attacker Noni Madueke after agreeing personal terms with the England international.

After weeks of the will-they-won’t-they saga playing out between Arsenal FC, Benjamin Sěsko, and Viktor Gyökeres, David Ornstein and Fabrizio Romano dropped a bombshell on Sunday morning when they reported that Arsenal have agreed to terms with Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting CP from Portugal.
