Though there reportedly remains a debate ongoing over the nature and structure of the bonuses included, Mikel Arteta was hoping to have Gyokeres signed in time for Saturday’s departure for their pre-season tour of Asia, along with Chelsea winger Noni Madueke and Valencia centre-back Cristhian Mosquera.
However, speaking to Portuguese outlet Sport TV on Thursday, Palhinha stressed that he remained committed to his contract with Bayern, which is not due to expire until June 2028. ‘I have a contract for three more years, so I’ll report for duty on July 29, which is when we start this pre-season,’ he said.

Yet, in a move that stunned many observers, he chose instead to extend his stay with Athletic Bilbao. The decision effectively ties him to the club for what could be the remainder of his professional career.
The situation surrounding Viktor Gyökeres’ expected move to Arsenal continues to drag on, and tensions are growing in Portugal. According to CNN Portugal pundit Daniel Carvalho, the striker’s failure to report for pre-season has left a negative mark on his relationship with Sporting.
