Gyokeres became the most sought-after name in the summer transfer window. |
A Bola revealed that Arsenal's board of directors, headed by new sporting director Andrea Berta, highly appreciates Gyokeres' ability, considering the Swedish striker a "dream" name to upgrade the Gunners' attack.
With his connections across Europe, Berta is pushing ahead with the Gyokeres deal through a series of preliminary talks with both the player's representatives and Sporting CP.
Portuguese media sources added that Sporting are ready to let the Swedish striker leave in the summer for a transfer fee of between 60 and 70 million euros, a reasonable figure for a 26-year-old player.
In the Portuguese league this season, Gyokeres scored 38 goals in 30 appearances. He also scored 6 more goals in the Champions League. In all competitions, Gyokeres reached 52 goals. In the last 10 matches, this striker scored 17 goals and had 3 assists for Sporting.
With consecutive goals, Gyokeres is leading the race for the European Golden Shoe. He has 57 points, 1 point more than the second-placed Mohamed Salah.
Arsenal have been tracking Gyokeres for a long time. However, it was not until Berta officially took the position of the club's sporting director last month that the English club pushed ahead with this deal.
The Italian is renowned for his smart transfers, especially in the forward line, from his time at Atlético Madrid. Arsenal will hope Berta's experience will help them get closer to their target Gyokeres.
