Arsenal target Viktor Gyokeres gives update on his future

Arsenal’s long-term target Viktor Gyokeres has given an update on his future after scoring a hat-trick for Sporting CP over Farense in a Liga Portugal match. The Swedish international has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League, with Arsenal and Chelsea reportedly favourites to land the 26-year-old forward.

The Gunners are in dire need of a new centre-forward and have earmarked Gyokeres as a likely target and still have funds available to strengthen their squad this summer. He is contracted with Sporting until 2028 and reportedly has a release clause of €100m.

Gyokeres said: “We never know what’s going to happen. It doesn’t just depend on me. We’ll see, but I feel good here. I don’t feel any stress about doing anything else. In football, in the transfer window, it’s normal, there are things we don’t know, that happen quickly. But I love being here, there’s no stress.”
