Real Madrid Confidencial Goodbye to Real Madrid, He Will Sign in the Coming Weeks for a Top Premier League Club
Gyökeres is a player who was liked by Real Madrid, but his signing is moving away, being closer to Premier League clubs.
Viktor Gyökeres Won't Play for Real Madrid. His destination is in the Premier League. The Sporting de Portugal forward has sparked great interest in England.
Chelsea, Liverpool, and Arsenal have inquired about him and are willing to compete for his signing. Manchester United was in the race but has dropped out.
Gyökeres Wants to Play in the Champions League, something the "Red Devils" can't offer him next season.
Additionally, INEOS, the club's management group, isn't willing to make a significant outlay for a forward who will turn 27 years old in the summer. They prefer to bet on younger players.
Interest from Top Clubs
Chelsea needs a reliable forward to consolidate its project. Gyökeres Fits Perfectly into Their Offensive Scheme and could become the reference in attack.
Liverpool, in full reconstruction after Jürgen Klopp's departure, also considers him a great option to strengthen their squad and ensure a top-level attack. More so, considering the Possible Departure of Salah at the end of the season.
Arsenal, meanwhile, is closely monitoring the Swede. Mikel Arteta wants more options in the attack front to compete in all competitions and sees Gyökeres as an Ideal Complement to Their Offense.
A Spectacular Scoring Pace
Gyökeres has been performing at an impressive level for two seasons. Last season he played 50 matches, scored 43 goals, and provided 15 assists.
In the current season, he has already played 35 matches, scoring 34 goals and providing 7 assists.
His effectiveness in the area has attracted the interest of the biggest clubs in Europe, who see him as an elite scorer.
Release Price
Sporting de Portugal won't let him leave easily. His Release Clause Is 100 Million Euros, and the Portuguese club has no intention of negotiating for a lower amount.
His importance to the team has been key, and his market value has increased considerably.
Real Madrid Considered the Possibility of Signing Him, but Never Advanced in the Operation.
Now, his destination seems to be in the Premier League. In the coming weeks, his future will be defined, but everything indicates that his next challenge will be in England.
