The LisBotian club saw Geovany Quenda sign a transfer to Chelsea, which is also in a position to recruit Dario Essugo, and is preparing for the departure of the Swedish international Gyokeres, a transfer that will have a major immediate impact on the team.
The 26 -year -old scored about one goal per game all season, and although he has a release clause of 100 million euros, Sporting will allow him to go at a more advantageous price, reports A Bola. Manchester United seems to be the favorite for gyokers at the moment, even if Arsenal or Chelsea could quickly turn to the former Coventry City striker, both being in search of a number 9.
Real Madrid is also interested. Fichajes reports that the Merengues have decided to embark on the battle for the player, who could offer the traditional center-center profile that is lacking to the Bernabéu.
“If gyokeres leaves …”
Sporting coach Rui Borges openly admitted that his team accepted the need to find a replacement for the attacker. “I do not focus on next season, but rather on the two and a half months to come”he told the media. “” Viktor is important for Sporting, we do not ignore it. It was important, not only for me. He has been so for some time.
“I am happy to count on him, to work with him, for everything he is, from athlete to anyone, and for what he gives every day. It is an example of rigor in training, respect for our requests. “I am happy to be able to take advantage of him as long as he is here. When he will not be there … we will find another Viktor Gyokeres or another Conrad Harder. »»
