The transfer will become official next week after Sporting Lisbon's final game of the season this weekend.
Sporting play Benfica in the Taca de Portugal final on Sunday in what will be Gyokeres' final game for the club.
Gyokeres to join Arsenal next week
The Sweden international has been heavily linked with a number of top clubs across Europe and FootballTransfers also reported that Arsenal are pushing to finalise an agreement to sign the 26-year-old.
Gyokeres has overtaken RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko as Arsenal’s priority summer target since the appointment of Andrea Berta as the Gunners’ new sporting director earlier this year, and fresh talks have been scheduled to take place after the Portuguese cup final on 25 May.
However, O Jogo take things one step further and say a transfer will be made official as early as next week.
Fabrizio Romano also confirmed on Monday that Gyokeres will leave Sporting this summer.
The transfer expert posted on X: “Despite public statements, Viktor Gyokeres will surely leave Sporting this summer with a fee already agreed.
“Package worth around €65m can be enough to get [the] green light from Sporting as agreed with Gyokeres months ago. Discussions with top European clubs continue.”
Gyokeres has a €100 million release clause in his Sporting Lisbon contract but will seemingly go for only €65m.
Gyokeres on fire
Gyokeres is the hottest striking property around right now and is having an incredible season, scoring 53 goals in 51 games in all competitions, and leading Sporting to another league title.
This follows on from his brilliant form from last season for Sporting where he scored 43 goals in all competitions for his club.
The attacker has 15 goals in 26 games for the Sweden national team.
