Viktor Gyokeres is expected to leave Sporting CP in this summer's transfer window with Arsenal leading the race for his signature.
The Sweden international has scored a sensational 96 goals in all competitions since moving to Portugal two summers ago and that has unsurprisingly attracted interest from other clubs in Europe.
His latest strike was superb and hugely impactful as he went past a number of players to grab the second goal in their 2-0 win over Vitoria which clinched the Primeira Liga title. Gyokeres also has the chance to win a second trophy next weekend when Sporting face Benfica in the Taco de Portugal cup final.
Another piece of silverware could be the perfect farewell for Gyokeres with transfer links starting to ramp up ahead of the summer window opening in a few weeks. With that being said, football.london has rounded up the latest updates on Gyokeres' future.
'Agreement' claims
Arsenal appear to be going all in for Gyokeres with Correio da Manha claiming that the Gunners have now submitted their first official offer which is said to be worth £63.4million (€75m) with an agreement on personal terms already struck.
They have added it has been agreed he will sign a five-year contract expected to be worth around £175,000 per-week.
Prior to all of that, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano claimed an agreement was also in place between Sporting and Gyokeres that would allow him to leave for lower than his £84million (€100m) release clause. Their new asking price was noted as being anywhere between £54.6million (€65m) and £58.8million (€70m).
Gyokeres on transfer links
Despite being six months apart, Gyokeres has not overly changed what he has said about potentially moving clubs this summer.
"It's not something I think about, nor something I give any importance to," Gyokeres said when quizzed on transfer talk in November. "It's just rumours, nothing concrete.
"Of course I want to finish the season at Sporting, I'm enjoying my time there. "I don't feel stressed about making a change in the future. We'll see when the time comes."
"It's football, I'm still here," the 26-year-old told Portuguese broadcaster Sport.TV, as per Record, after Sporting's title triumph. "I don't know what's going to happen. Nobody can predict the future."
Arteta and Berta stance
As per the Athletic, new sporting director Andrea Berta is a huge fan of Gyokeres with interest in acquiring his services stepping up following his arrival in March.
However, it does not look as though Arteta sees things that way with Newcastle United's Alexander Isak his dream target. With their asking price extremely high, it is very unlikely that deal is financially achievable and thus a back-up option will need to be identified but that is not believed to be Gyokeres.
Instead, it is RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko that he is a big fan of with the Slovenia international strongly linked last season only to sign a new contract in Germany.
