PSG could strike a big blow on the transfer market. While the Parisian attack is still looking for its balance this season, the club is working behind the scenes to find quality reinforcement. A target, already scrutinized by other European leaders, once again attracts the attention of Ile-de-France residents.
According to the latest information from the German daily Bild, this track leads to Viktor Gyökeres, the Swedish striker for Sporting CP. Brilliant since his arrival in Portugal, he has established himself as one of the most prominent players in Europe in his position. Aged 25, the Scandinavian has reached a milestone under the leadership of Ruben Amorim, his former coach at Sporting, thanks to his finishing qualities, his physical power and his intelligence in the game.
Fierce competition on this issue
But Paris is not alone on the issue. Bayern Munich, looking for a striker for next summer, are closely monitoring the player. Manchester United, looking for stability up front, also hope to convince Gyökeres to join Old Trafford. These two behemoths are not the only ones interested in the Swede. Arsenal and Chelsea, who had followed him in the past, could also return to the charge.
Paris does not forget Gyokeres
PSG will therefore face fierce competition if they want to attract Gyökeres. However, with its European ambitions and its needs in attack, the Parisian club could accelerate discussions to try to get ahead of its rivals.
A profile that fits the needs of PSG
Gyökeres’ potential seems to perfectly meet PSG’s expectations. His versatility, capable of playing up front or playing in a wider role, makes him an ideal weapon to complete the Parisian attacking trio. His power and self-sacrifice could also offer Luis Enrique a valuable option to diversify his offensive animation.
While the winter transfer window is in full swing, PSG could relaunch this prestigious track in the days to come. It remains to be seen whether the club will be able to convince Gyökeres in the face of such formidable competition.
