Viktor Gyokeres is reportedly willing to give up a significant amount of his future salary to force through a move to Arsenal this summer.

Mail Sport reported over the weekend how the Gunners are finally closing in on the Swedish striker in a deal worth up to £70million after a lengthy pursuit.

Further talks were taking place on Sunday night over the structure of achievable bonus payments on the fee with the 27-year old having already agreed personal terms on a five-year contract.

Gyokeres, who has been adamant throughout the summer that he only wants to join Arsenal, came back into focus after RB Leipzig failed to budge sufficiently in their valuation of Benjamin Sesko.
