Forget Osimhen – £63 million star is ‘perfect signing’ for Enzo Maresca at Chelsea
Premier League clubs including CHELSEA have been told Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres could be available for as little as £63m next summer, and Chelsea should make sure that they get the man signed up according to reporter Iomie Stanley
This season, he has already scored 23 goals in just 17 appearances, recently bagging a hat-trick against Manchester City in the Champions League and continuing to make a real name for himself at the Portuguese giants
The Swedish striker’s release clause at Sporting is reportedly €100m (£83m) in a contract which still has almost four years to run in the Portuguese capital, but Gyokeres could be available for as little as £63m next summer, according to The Times.
Gyokeres’ is “dissatisfied” with the decision of the head coach Ruben Amorim to depart for Manchester United, as the Portuguese boss was one of the main reasons that he stayed in the summer window., and according to TBR, while the 26-year-old is in no hurry to pick his next club, it is becoming increasingly likely that he will move to England.
Chelsea have also been linked with Victor Osimhen, but according to Stanley, Gyokeres is the man to get, he told icfootballnews: “There were eight clubs very interested in Viktor last summer [2023]. They all paid Coventry more than Sporting, but the striker wanted to be at the club because of Ruben Amorim.
‘Chelsea have a quality attack that is just missing a few players to complete the puzzle, Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku have been impressive at times this season, but at the end of the day, they are not 30 goals a season forwards.
‘Gyokeres is a man that is ready for that next step in his career, Sporting are a top club, but the Premier League will really test his ability and his quality in front of goal, Chelsea would be a serious test for the man.
‘Chelsea have been missing this type of striker for a while and they need to make sure that an offer is made when there is a chance to get a dea done.’
