Sporting Lisbon’s standout player, Viktor Gyokeres, has provided yet another indication regarding his preferred future club amidst interest from Arsenal, Manchester United, and Liverpool.
The former Coventry striker is anticipated to depart from Sporting this summer following two seasons with the team.
This season, he achieved an impressive tally of 39 goals in Liga Portugal and also scored six times in the Champions League, which included a hat-trick against Manchester City during the league stage.
A return to England seems probable, with Arsenal and Manchester United at the forefront of the pursuit to acquire him.
The Gunners, in particular, are seeking a centre forward, while United is initially concentrating on securing a deal for Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo after activating the £62.5 million release clause for the now former Wolves player, Matheus Cunha.
Gyokeres recently discussed with Vogue Scandinavia the differences between life in Portugal, England, and his native Sweden, and he seemed to indicate his preferred future destination.
