Viktor Gyokeres prefers Arsenal move amid Premier League interest

Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres continues to attract strong interest from Arsenal and other Premier League clubs following his prolific goal-scoring form, including a recent hat-trick against Moreirense. While Gyokeres is understood to have a gentleman's agreement with Sporting that could allow him to leave for around £63 million—below his official £85 million release clause—he has remained non-committal about his future, telling reporters, 'No one can predict what will happen, we enjoy the moment.' Arsenal are reportedly his preferred destination due to the prospect of Champions League football, although Manchester United, Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea are also monitoring the situation. New Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is said to be an admirer of Gyokeres, with the club prioritizing the addition of a proven striker this summer. Despite repeated questions about a potential move to London, Gyokeres has insisted his focus remains on Sporting, replying, 'I like Lisbon.' The forward's outstanding performance in Portugal has made him one of the most coveted transfer targets ahead of the summer window.
