ARSENAL are set to make Viktor Gyokeres one of their highest earners - and could land him for just £60million.

The Gunners are among a host of Europe's elite chasing the prolific Swede striker.

Gyokeres, 26, has scored 95 goals in 100 games since joining Sporting Lisbon from Coventry City.

The forward cost the Portuguese club £16.8m in the summer of 2023.

And reports suggest Sporting have already agreed a price with Arsenal for one of their top targets.

New sporting director Andrea Berta has placed Gyokeres high on his wishlist as the Gunners look to overhaul their attack.

The Mirror report that there is already an agreement in place on price between the two clubs.

The £60m fee represents a lower figure than the £85m release clause included in the forward's contract.

But that price tag "could go higher" if clubs pile in for a bidding war in the summer, with Manchester United among those tracking Gyokeres.

The 26-year-old will also command a hefty wage, with his proposed contract costing the Gunners over £7million-a-year.

He is expected to be offered a deal north of £200,000-a-week, putting him among the top earners at the Emirates.

Arsenal are also keen on RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko, 22.

However, reports suggest the club has "reservations" about that deal and considers Gyokeres its top target.

Gyokeres ended April in stunning form, netting EIGHT times in just three games against Moreirense, Rio Ave and Boavista.

The ex-Brighton striker was recently asked about the possibility of a switch to the capital.

But he remained tight-lipped on his future with Sporting going into a last-day shootout for the title with rivals Benfica on Saturday.

Asked after the win over Moreirense if he liked London, Gyokeres replied with a smile: "I like Lisbon!"

He added: "No one can predict what will happen, we enjoy the moment."
