His arrival is seen as complementary rather than conflicting, as the Gunners look to strengthen centrally with Eze.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Eze, Arsenal retain interest in several high-profile targets. Real Madrid\u2019s Rodrygo, Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, and AC Milan\u2019s Rafael Le\u00e3o remain on the club\u2019s radar. However, any move for that trio is likely to depend on outgoings, specifically Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli.<\/p>\n<p>A deal for Sporting striker Viktor Gy\u00f6keres is also close to completion, as per veteran sports journalist Fabrizio Romano.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udea8\ud83d\udd34\u26aa\ufe0f Negotiations between Arsenal and Sporting remain ongoing in London with all parties involved.<\/p>\n<p>After commission reduced by agent plus \u20ac63.5m fee ready, Sporting ask for \u20ac10m add-ons to be easy\/guaranteed.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal and agents remain in talks to get the final green light. pic.twitter.com\/0YMH2NZGxd<br \/>\n\u2014 Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) July 14, 2025<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners are expected to pay \u20ac63.5 million plus \u20ac10 million in add-ons, after a compromise was reached involving a waived agent commission. The final package matches Sporting\u2019s valuation while simplifying the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal have also agreed terms with Valencia for 19-year-old defender Cristhian Mosquera in a deal worth nearly \u20ac20 million. The Spain youth international is expected to be officially unveiled soon.<\/p>\n<p>These moves follow the arrivals of Real Sociedad midfielder Mart\u00edn Zubimendi for \u00a355.8 million and Brentford\u2019s Christian N\u00f8rgaard, who joined last week in a deal rising to \u00a312 million.
