Recruiting Gyokeres is an important step for Ruben Amorim to agree to stay at MU, as well as build a new project to compete for major titles in the future.

Gyokeres is no stranger to English football . The Swede made his mark with Coventry City in the Championship, before bursting onto the scene with Sporting Lisbon. They have just won the Portuguese championship.

Through personal connections, Ruben Amorim is trying to convince Gyokeres. Arsenal are also interested in the 26-year-old striker - who is valued at 80 million euros by Sporting.

Arsenal want Isak

Arsenal have officially qualified for the Champions League after beating Newcastle, but overall it has been another disappointing season for the north London-based side.

To realise their dream of winning the Premier League, a title that has eluded them since 2004, Arsenal are looking to sign striker Alexander Isak.

No Arsenal player has reached double digits in Premier League goals this season. To win the Premier League, a striker needs to reach 20+ goals.

That's why officials at Emirates Stadium are trying to negotiate with Newcastle about Isak - who exploded with 23 goals for the "Magpies" (27 goals in all competitions).

Barca contact Luis Diaz

After their La Liga title debut in Montjuic, Barcelona also moved forward with the transfer process to meet Hansi Flick's demands.

Hansi Flick's target is Luis Diaz, to strengthen the attacking depth. The Colombian player has an enthusiastic style of play, suitable for the current style of football of Barca.

Luis Diaz is a versatile winger who can rotate with Raphinha and Lamine Yamal. He is even capable of replacing Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres as the striker.

Liverpool are interested in signing Nico Williams. The Premier League champions are ready to negotiate with Barca about Luis Diaz.
