Victor Gyokeres arrives at London Conley to undergo Arsenal medical Today after reaching verbal agreement with the club on 5yr deal yesterday – Confirmed by Fabrizio Romano

It’s happening — Arsenal are closing in on their next big summer signing. Swedish striker Victor Gyökeres has officially arrived at Arsenal’s London Colney training ground this morning to undergo his medical, ahead of a blockbuster move from Sporting CP to North London.

The deal was confirmed late last night by renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who revealed that the 26-year-old had reached a full verbal agreement with Arsenal on a five-year contract that will keep him at the Emirates until 2029.

“Victor Gyökeres to Arsenal — here we go!” Fabrizio Romano tweeted, confirming that the medical was scheduled for today, with all personal terms agreed and final details between the clubs being finalized.

In this morning’s press conference, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was asked about the imminent signing and, while careful not to name the player directly, he hinted at exciting developments:
“We’re very close to adding a key player to our squad — someone who brings quality, physicality, and a proven eye for goal. The club is working hard to get everything completed as soon as possible.”

Gyökeres, who enjoyed a sensational season in Portugal with 43 goals and 15 assists in all competitions, has been one of Europe’s most sought-after forwards this summer. Arsenal moved decisively to secure his services ahead of other major clubs, seeing the Swedish international as the ideal striker to lead their line for the coming years.

The £85 million move is expected to be officially announced once the medical is successfully completed and contracts are signed. Arsenal’s technical director Edu Gaspar was seen arriving at London Colney earlier today, signaling that all formalities are being handled swiftly.

Supporters have already begun gathering outside the training ground, hoping for a glimpse of their incoming striker, while social media is ablaze with excitement over the imminent arrival.
