Arsenal are still hopeful of finalising a deal to sign Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres in time for the start of their pre-season tour, despite a report in Portugal throwing the move into doubt.
It emerged earlier this week that Arsenal and Sporting had reached a broad agreement over Gyökeres, with the Gunners agreeing to pay an initial €63.5 million (£55.1 million, $75.1 million) plus a further €10 million (£8.7 million, $11.7 million) in performance-related bonuses.
