Viktor Gyökeres is on the verge of leaving Sporting Portugal — and the club already has a replacement in mind: Luis Suárez.
The Swedish striker has chosen Arsenal. Despite denials from the club, Gyökeres’ camp claims he was promised a €70 million exit.
Behind the scenes, the player pushed for a move and even threatened to skip pre-season. Arsenal seized the opportunity and is now close to sealing a five-year deal with the forward.
No, Not That Luis Suárez
To fill the gap, Sporting is targeting Luis Suárez — not Messi’s old teammate, but the Colombian striker from Almeria. After a stellar season in Spain’s second division with 27 goals, he’s seen as the ideal successor.
However, his release clause is set at €40 million, and it’s unclear whether Sporting is willing to go that far.
