The Gunners remain calm over Gyokeres but are growing frustrated with Sporting’s refusal to compromise, as talks over a summer move continue to stall.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta dropped a hint on the club's pursuit of Viktor Gyokeres as the Premier League giants reached Singapore ahead of their pre-season preparations. The Gunners have been linked with a move for the Swedish striker since the start of the summer transfer window but they are yet to agree on a deal with Sporting CP on the transfer fee.
