Sporting CP vice-president Francisco Salgado Zenha has opened up on Viktor Gyokeres’ future amid strong interest from the likes of CHELSEA, Arsenal and Manchester United, who are all interested in adding to their squad this summer.
After a dream outing with Sporting CP in the 2024-25 campaign, where Gyokeres scored 54 goals across all competitions and won two domestic trophies, including the Liga Portugal title, the Swedish striker has attracted interest from several clubs, including the trio of Premier League giants.
There has even been some reports in the media which have claimed that offers have been made for Gyokeres, although no clubs was properly mentioned, Sporting CP vice-president, however, denied receiving any formal offer as he revealed the club’s stance on their star striker’s future.
The club chief told reporters: “He has three more years on his contract. At the moment, there are no offers, he has three more years on his contract. I think the answer has been given. [Sporting’s transfer plans] won’t be any different from last year.
‘We want to keep the best players and retain talent. We want to continue to be champions, have competitive teams and fight on all fronts.
“I have been in this role for seven years. In the years when Sporting were champions, we even made fewer sales than in other years … the fact that we are champions gives us a greater ability to retain players and talent.
‘Coincidence or not, we have not had to sell any players in those times. Not that we have not received offers, but the market is not under our control, we are always dependent.”
