Catch all the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours, including updates on Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres and Fabio Vieira.

Arsenal’s transfer business has already stepped up, with six signings lined up for the month of July, and there could be more to come.

The Gunners may shift their attention to potential sales in the coming weeks, given the sheer number of signings.

So, with that said, here’s a look at the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours ahead of another busy day of action.

Liverpool make Alexander Isak approach

Arsenal have long been linked with a move for Alexander Isak in past transfer windows, but haven’t been able to get a deal over the line.

That could prove costly as David Ornstein reports that rivals Liverpool have made a formal approach for the striker.

No formal bid has been made, which could open the door for the Gunners, though it isn’t clear if they would make such a move.

Newcastle have set a stance against a sale, but that could change in the coming weeks.

Viktor Gyokeres update from Fabrizio Romano

Arsenal are still engaged in talks over a deal to sign Viktor Gyokeres, amid reports that a deal was on the verge of a possible collapse.

That’s according to Fabrizio Romano, who clarified an update on the Swedish international’s situation this summer.

Speaking on YouTube, he said: “The agent of the player is still in London, last night we had reports of the deal on the verge of collapsing, from what I’m told, the conversations are still ongoing between all parties involved: Arsenal, Sporting, agents, to sort the final points.

“63 million euros, fixed fee. Now, the agent did everything possible because he’s going to reduce the commission.

“Arsenal also doing their best by paying more than what they expected… now Sporting want even more. Sporting want the ten million in add-ons to be easy, almost guaranteed add-ons, while Arsenal want it to be part easy and part of it to be quite difficult.”

Fabio Vieira’s agent searching for transfer solution

The agent of Fabio Vieira is currently searching for a way to secure his future amid a potential exit from Arsenal this summer.

The midfielder has struggled to make an impact for the Gunners, spending the last season on loan at his former club, Porto.

With Vieira’s return to the Emirates Stadium, there is growing uncertainty surrounding where he may end up playing his football.

Now, according to GiveMeSport, the Portuguese star’s agents are on the case to deal with his next move.

It’s claimed that talks have been held with clubs across Europe over a possible deal.

One Serie A club is believed to have a permanent offer declined, while a Bundesliga club had a loan move turned down.
