Sporting CP has decided to lower its economic demands for Viktor Gyökeres, setting his price at 60 million euros for the summer market. This reduction has intensified the race for the Swedish forward, with Manchester United, FC Barcelona, and Arsenal positioning themselves as the main contenders to sign him. His performance this season, with impressive goal and assist figures, has made him one of the most coveted attackers in Europe.
-Manchester United: Manchester United has the upper hand in the bidding due to the player's connection with Rubén Amorim, who has been crucial in his breakthrough in Portugal and could end up managing him at Old Trafford if his move to the English bench materializes. The club sees Gyökeres as the ideal striker to reinforce an attack that has shown deficiencies throughout the campaign.
-Arsenal: Meanwhile, Arsenal does not want to lag behind and has thrown its name into the mix at the explicit request of Mikel Arteta, who believes that a striker of his profile is essential to compete in the Premier League and the Champions League. The Gunners have analyzed various options but see the Swede as a solid candidate to lead their offense.
Is He Lewandowski's Heir?
-FC Barcelona: FC Barcelona, on the other hand, views Gyökeres as a potential successor to Robert Lewandowski. With the Pole nearing the end of his contract, the Barça sporting director is considering a long-term replacement to maintain strength in the area. However, the club's financial difficulties could complicate the deal in the face of the financial power of its rivals.
With several giants pursuing his signature and a more accessible price, Gyökeres' future looks set to be one of the major talking points of the upcoming transfer market.
