Gunners have been linked with several big names, including Rahim Sterling, Yuri Tyleman and Christopher Enkunku – but have struggled to find contracts for players who are considered key signatories.
Vieira, who has played 20 matches for the Portugal Under-21s, was a left-handed player, but those who call the Emirates Stadium home are expected to be a masterstroke.
Top Story – Vieira’s move to Arsenal in the final stages
According to ESPN, a deal is said to be in the 40 million range as Vieira travels to London for his medical on Friday before finalizing a five-year deal.
The talented attacking midfielder – who played at No. 10 and as the second striker – completed 27 games in the Premier League season with six goals and 14 assists. No one in Portugal’s top division had much help.
Vieira had a € 50m release clause with Porto, but the club was happy to accept the reduced figure.
This could be the start of a big week for Arsenal, with ESPN noting that they are leading Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus in a race that could cost up to 50 million.
