Real Madrid keeps looking for a forward. The name of Viktor Gyökeres is starting to resonate strongly in the white environment.

According to the team of Fran Guillén, DAZN commentator, the Swede would be the ideal '9' to strengthen Madrid's attack.

It's not just another rumor. It's a specific profile. A forward with physique, finishing, and work ethic, similar to what Joselu offered this season.

A 'killer' with overwhelming numbers

Gyökeres has had a spectacular season. In total, 52 goals in 50 matches. Not only that: he has provided 13 assists in 4,038 minutes.

An absolutely brutal figure of direct goal involvement. He scores or assists every 63 minutes. Numbers that do not go unnoticed.

The forward plays for Sporting de Portugal and has established himself as one of the most decisive strikers in Europe.

Real Madrid already knows the cost of the operation. Gyökeres's signing would be around 75 million euros.

A high amount, but within the range that the club would be willing to pay if one of its strikers ends up leaving.

The Swede is under contract until 2028, but Sporting knows it will be very difficult to keep him this summer. Several big European clubs are following him.

Style that appeals at Bernabéu

Gyökeres not only stands out for his goals. Also for his ability to play with his back to the goal, hold the ball, and create spaces.

A type of forward that Madrid has valued a lot this season with Joselu. Not so media-friendly, but very useful.

Moreover, the Swede has character, leadership, and international experience. At 25 years old, he is in full sporting maturity.

There is no rush at the club, but there is movement. Several names are being studied to strengthen the forward line. Some young, others more established.

But Gyökeres fits. More and more voices recommend him. His name is already on the table at Valdebebas.

At DAZN, they are clear: he is the '9' that Real Madrid needs. Work, goals, and presence. A profile that would fit perfectly with Vinicius, Mbappé, and Bellingham.

If the club fails to close other deals, Gyökeres could become the big surprise of the summer. The new 'killer' of Bernabéu.
