Arsenal are close to agreeing a deal to sign Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon.

They have agreed to pay a fixed fee of around £55m for the striker.

It is understood there was a breakthrough in negotiations when Gyokeres' agent agreed to waive a commission he was due from the deal.

This lowered the asking price for Arsenal on the guaranteed money without Sporting receiving less than they wanted.

Negotiations continue over add-ons with Sporting still holding out for €10m.
