London's Arsenal, due to Gabriel Jesus' injury, is forced to enter the transfer market in search of a new striker. As a result, the Gunners are set to try and sign Sporting's forward Viktor Gyökeres this winter.
Details: According to The Independent, Arsenal's main competitor for the Swedish striker’s signature will be Manchester United. The Red Devils plan to leverage the strong relationship between Gyökeres and their head coach Ruben Amorim to influence the negotiations. However, Manchester United will only be able to make an official offer in the summer.
Reminder: Gyökeres’ current contract with Sporting runs until June 30, 2028, and his market value, according to Transfermarkt, stands at €75 million. In the current season, the forward has played 30 matches for the club, scoring 32 goals and providing 6 assists.
