Sporting Lisbon’s Swedish striker, Viktor Gyokeres, is attracting significant interest from top clubs, though his high valuation has so far prevented a transfer.
Reports indicate Arsenal and Manchester United are leading the chase for the 26-year-old Sweden international. While no official transfer has materialized, Gyokeres is widely expected to depart Sporting next season.
Initially, Sporting had set an asking price nearing €100 million. However, recent reports suggest the club has lowered their valuation to approximately €60 million, potentially opening the door for negotiations with interested parties.
Gyokeres’s impressive statistics underline his appeal. As of April 23, 2025, his key figures include:
* 16 goals and assists in 9 games.
* 48 goal contributions in 47 matches for Sporting.
* 57 goal contributions in 53 matches for club and national teams.
* A remarkable 72 total goal contributions across 53 matches in all competitions.
