Official: Arsenal announce £63m Viktor Gyokeres transfer

Arsenal have officially confirmed the £63.5 million signing of Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon.

The 27-year-old has penned a five-year deal worth around £300,000 a week.

This means only Bukayo Saka now earns more at Arsenal than the Swedish striker.

The Gunners will pay an initial £54.8m up front, with a further £8.7m in additional clauses.

These add-ons include Gyokeres’ goal and assist contributions, as well as whether Arsenal secure a place in the top four or win the Premier League title.
