Viktor Gyokeres' true feelings on a proposed transfer to Arsenal have emerged amid reports of Man United attempting to hijack the deal. Arsenal have been in the market for a striker all summer and identified Gyokeres as their top target.

Manchester United reportedly have no plans to bid for Viktor Gyokeres despite claims that they are close to hijacking Arsenal 's move for the Swede. The Gunners are on the verge of drawing a line under this summer's long-running saga, having reached an agreement in principle with Sporting after weeks of going back and forth over a transfer fee.

Gyokeres looks destined to sign for Arsenal. Mikel Arteta's side have finished runners-up in the Premier League for three successive seasons and signing a prolific striker has been their main aim this summer.
