The fee includes a fixed payment along with performance-based add-ons, signaling a significant investment in bolstering the Gunners' attacking prowess for the upcoming Premier League season.

The 27-year-old forward has penned a five-year contract with the North London club and will don the iconic No. 14 shirt, famously worn by club legend Thierry Henry. 

This move is widely seen as a strategic acquisition to enhance Arsenal's offensive options and provide a crucial focal point in attack as they prepare for a challenging campaign.

While specific details regarding the negotiation process were not immediately released, the announcement culminates speculation surrounding Gyökeres' future.

Social media chatter, including a post from "HandöfArsenal" on X (formerly Twitter) just two hours prior to the official news, hinted at an imminent reveal, stating, "The plan is to announce Viktor Gyökeres as a new Arsenal player today if all goes to plan today God willing."

Gyökeres' arrival is expected to inject a new dimension into Arsenal's forward line, offering a blend of physicality, goal-scoring ability, and link-up play. 

Fans will be eager to see how the prolific striker integrates into manager Mikel Arteta's system and contributes to the team's ambitions in both domestic and European competitions.

The signing underscores Arsenal's intent to compete at the highest level and provides a significant boost to their squad depth as the new season approaches.
