Arsenal have reportedly already met Sporting Lisbon’s initial demands for Viktor Gyokeres, and even surpassed his original asking price.That’s according to David Ornstein in the Athletic, who says the Gunners are yet to agree a fee with Sporting for Gyokeres, much to the player’s frustration.The Sweden international now appears to be on strike at the Portuguese club, having neglected to turn up for the start of pre-season training today, as first reported by Mais Futebol.The Athletic’s report adds that Gyokeres is furious with Sporting and feels they’ve gone back on their word to let him go for the €60m plus €10m which Arsenal have offered.How will Viktor Gyokeres transfer saga end?Viktor Gyokeres celebrates a goal for Sporting Lisbon (Photo from AFP)It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can make any progress on this deal, but the fact that Gyokeres is pushing so hard for the move will surely help the north London giants.The 27-year-old seems determined to get his move, and Fabrizio Romano has also spoken on YouTube about Arsenal continuing to try to reach an agreement with Sporting.“Arsenal are in very advanced talks for Viktor Gyokeres and that doesn’t change.
