Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres has rejected Manchester United for a move to Arsenal this summer, according to Portuguese outlet A Bola.

The Sweden international has developed into one of the best strikers in the world and he could be on his way to the Premier League very soon.

Arsenal are in advanced negotiations with Sporting for the player. They are ready to pay £55m as a fixed fee, but there are concerns over bonuses.

Sporting want the £8.5m add-ons to be easily achievable, but Arsenal believe a portion of the bonuses should be difficult to trigger in the near future.

Amidst this, there has been speculation that United could hijack the deal for Gyokeres, but A Bola claim that the 27-year-old is holding out for a move to the Gunners.

He and his agent have a clear stance on their mind and have no plans of changing their direction despite fresh interest from the Red Devils this week.
