Several European clubs are keen on Sporting Lisbon’s standout Viktor Gyökeres heading into 2025. Nonetheless, one pundit advises the Swedish standout to head to a specific destination that could maximize his traits.
Loïc Tanzi of L’Équipe recently claimed that Paris Saint-Germain are closely monitoring Gyökeres, with plans to target him in the summer of 2025. PSG’s sporting advisor, Luís Campos, has already reached out to the striker’s representatives.
Meanwhile, The Daily Briefing mentions that Manchester United are preparing to make a move for Gyökeres, with coach Rúben Amorim—who worked with the striker in Lisbon—leading the effort.
Additionally, Diario AS has reported that Manchester United are willing to activate Gyökeres’ €100 million release clause to seal the deal.
A former player wants Viktor Gyökeres to join Arsenal
The player’s close confidant and former Arsenal star Anders Limpar has revealed that he advised him to consider no club other than Arsenal for his next move.
“I know Gyökeres very well personally, I was a bit of a mentor for him when he played for Brommapojkarna, he and Ludwig Augustinsson. So, I’ve talked a lot about professional life with him,” Limpar told FotbollDirekt (h/t TEAMtalk).
“He’s a fantastically hardworking forward who scores a lot of goals. If we at Arsenal [were to] buy Gyökeres, then he would definitely call me. But then to see Gyökeres at Arsenal, that would be crazy.”
