Man United Urged to Sign €70M-Rated forward with 14-goals this season amid strong PSG and Tottenham Hotspur links -Report

In September, CaughtOffside reported that Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Paris Saint-Germain are vying for Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyökeres.

The reports claims that Chelsea sees Gyökeres as a backup option and intends to make another run for Victor Osimhen in January or the summer of next year, while Tottenham is presently leading the hunt for the player.

Because of their close ties to Sporting, PSG is also monitoring Gyökeres.

CaughtOffside notes that any possible transfer will be contingent upon the club’s decision to let go of either Ramos or Kolo Muani at the end of current season, which is still up in the air.

Gyökeres has a €100 million release clause, but an agreement has been reached for him to depart Sporting CP next summer for between €60 million and €70 million, according to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports Germany.

While a winter transfer isn’t on the horizon, a move in the summer seems quite likely. In England, clubs like Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea are particularly interested in the 26-year-old striker.

Tim Sherwood advised Ruben Amorim to bring in Gyökeres, but first, he needs to find a way to remove Joshua Zirkzee from the team.

“He needs to then decide what do I need in January. Does he bring in Marcus Edwards with him? That boy is a superstar,” Sherwood said (h/t TEAMTalk). “He went from Tottenham [Hotspur] to Sporting

“Do we bring Gyokeres? He’s absolutely on fire at the moment. I would suggest 100 percent that boy comes in because they’re starved of center-forwards. They’ve got Hojlund, they’ve got Zirkzee, who’s not a center-forward anyway, but they’ve got to get him out before they can bring players in, and that’s the problem.”
