It looks like a painful end of adventure but as long as Sporting CP does not have its desired check, Viktor Gyökeres will remain at the club. The Swedish, however, employs the big means to leave the Portuguese team which he joined two years ago, and where his statistics became monstrous (109 goals and 31 assists in 114 matches, club and selection combined). He wishes to join Arsenal, who would have proposed the desired sum according to the player's agent, but which the Lisbon management would have refused to try to obtain even more.
We learned yesterday that the Goleador would not present himself to the resumption of his club to try to force his hand. He said he was convinced of his departure. At 27, he has no time to waste and has to join a leading team. At the same time, he affirms with France Footballin an interview carried out on July 7 but published this Saturday, that it does not know what his future will be: “It's football, you never know. I don't think about it (when he left, editor's note), we'll see what's going on. If something should happen, it will happen. The most important thing for me is to evolve in a club that really wants me.»
«What I managed to do at Sporting, I am convinced that I could do it anywhere»
An answer that tries to drown the fish. Gyökeres knows this. His name has been in the front page of English media for weeks and his agent has already expressed his disagreement with Sporting management several times. The Premier League, Arsenal in mind, is obviously the number one option for those who have already evolved in England, without ever playing in the elite. “”It is one of the biggest European championships. I spent several years there without being able to play the slightest match. So, of course, that's something I would like to do. It would be a great revenge“Explains the former Brighton and Coventry.
According to him, the last two seasons have shown that he was necessary to count on him among the best attackers in the world. “”I'm part of it, that's for sure. It's hard to classify myself but, yes, I am at the same table as them now“He says when FF Asks him where he is compared to Harry Kane, Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland. To have the assurance, he now remains to prove it in a club capable of playing the win in C1. “”What I managed to do at Sporting, I am convinced that I could make it anywhere. You haven't seen the best gyökeres yet.This promises.
