Sporting Lisbon has purportedly disclosed that they are amenable to receiving proposals of approximately £63 million for their star striker, Viktor Gyokeres. Arsenal and other high-profile clubs have been informed of this.
In Sporting’s most recent Champions League match against Manchester City, Gyokeres, 26, secured his place on the radar with an exceptional hat-trick, which increased his season tally to 23 goals in 17 appearances. The Swedish forward has swiftly established himself as one of Europe’s most sought-after strikers, as his performances this season have garnered widespread interest.
Gyokeres, who transferred from Coventry City to Sporting in July 2023 for £20 million, promptly adjusted to the demands of European football’s highest echelon, assisting the club in winning the Portuguese title in his inaugural season.
The Telegraph’s Mike McGrath reports that the club would consider proposals in the vicinity of £63 million in the upcoming summer transfer window, despite the fact that his contract with Sporting runs until 2028 and includes a €100 million (£83 million) release clause.
