Arsenal are yet to finalise a deal for Viktor Gyokeres despite agreeing a fixed £55m fee for the Sporting CP striker over a week ago; Mikel Arteta has since taken his team out to Singapore and Hong Kong for a pre-season tour; Arsenal kick off their Premier League season on August 17
Arsenal have since departed on their pre-season tour to Singapore and Hong Kong, with Arteta asked about whether Gyokeres will become a Gunners player before the start of the new season.
“I cannot comment on any player who is not part of our group yet,” said Arteta. “When we have something concrete to offer in any case to any player we will do that.
So far this summer, Arsenal have completed deals for Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard and Noni Madueke – in a busy start to their first summer window under new sporting director Andrea Berta.
Gyokeres is not the only outstanding Arsenal deal in the pipeline with an initial £13m deal for Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera close to completion.
