The Gunners are in advanced talks to sign Viktor Gyokeres and remain confident of securing key contract renewals behind the scenes, despite interest from rival clubs.

“Leandro Trossard [getting] a new agent reshuffles all the cards for his future, and the interest of Saudi clubs, –which came at the end of the 2024 summer transfer window – could be considered more carefully during this transfer window,” Tavolieri writes.

A deal for the 27-year-old striker is not done as discussions continue over the fee — but the situation is progressing towards a conclusion.
