Viktor Gyökeres is experiencing a golden moment in his career. The Swedish forward is putting up star numbers with Sporting Lisbon, scoring 23 goals in just 18 games played this season. His ability to decide games, both in the Portuguese league and with the Swedish national team, has catapulted him onto the radar of Premier League giants, where his signing is shaping up to be one of the most interesting operations in the upcoming market.
-Chelsea
Chelsea is one of the clubs positioning strongly in the race to secure the striker's services. In the midst of rebuilding their squad, the London team is seeking a leading striker who can take on the goal-scoring responsibility that has been lacking in recent years. Gyökeres, with his mobility, power, and goal-scoring instinct, would fit perfectly into the club's setup, as they are willing to make a strong investment to reclaim their place among the best.
-Manchester United
On the other hand, Manchester United seems to be the most logical destination for the Swede. The presence of Rúben Amorim, who was his coach at Sporting Lisbon, is a great attraction for both the player and the coach, who firsthand knows his qualities and how to maximize his performance. Furthermore, the "Red Devils" need to strengthen their attack and see Gyökeres as the ideal forward to lead their long-term project, giving them an edge in the competition with other suitors.
While Premier League clubs prepare their strategies to entice the Swede, Gyökeres continues to show he is ready to make the definitive leap into one of the most demanding competitions in world football, establishing himself as one of the standout names in the market.
