Sporting CP are reportedly open to selling Viktor Gyokeres in January and willing to negotiate the price tag, which will appeal to some of his suitors.
According to Fichajes, Sporting CP are not opposed to selling star striker Viktor Gyokeres in January, and they could also be open to negotiating his price tag. The 26-year-old productive attacker currently has a €100 million release clause and should be available for a lower price; teams like Arsenal and Barcelona will take an interest.
Sporting CP soften Viktor Gyokeres stance
Something was strange about Viktor Gyokeres not leaving Sporting CP during the summer after a prolific season under his belt. Many top clubs would have jumped the queue had the Portuguese outfit shown an inclination to sell him, although the main reason for him not departing could have been the €100 million release clause in his contract.
The report states Sporting are ready to soften its stance and are willing to sell Gyokeres in the summer. They could negotiate on the transfer fee, although the question here is on how much they are willing to slash off from the release clause of the 26-year-old productive attacker.
Theoretically, Sporting have no reason to soften their stance all of a sudden after holding out for the entire release clause fee during the summer. It will not help their season as well as put them in a difficult position to find a replacement. However, they will have no shortages of suitors, with a few already scouting him after another tremendous start with 12 goals and assists this season.
Should they end up softening their stance, Sporting will have no shortages of suitors, with the likes of Chelsea and Tottenham already kept informed of the striker’s situation. There are others in the mix, like Arsenal and Barcelona, as any deal will come down to these clubs finding a way to negotiate with the player and his club.
Arsenal and Barcelona interested
Arsenal have long been linked with a move for Viktor Gyokeres, although they might not have wanted to pay his release clause. As of now, the Gunners have cooled their interest in Benjamin Sesko, which could see them look to bring a readymade star, as Sporting’s stance will boost their chances of signing Gyokeres.
Barcelona are also interested in bringing in Gyokeres as a long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski. However, when it comes to the Blaugrana, there are ongoing challenges with their finances, although they are also known to pull off a surprise out of their hats and might do that with the 26-year-old productive attacker.
