Arsenal and Man Utd told how much it'll cost to sign Viktor Gyokeres this summer

Former Coventry City striker Viktor Gyokeres has become one of Europe's most prolific goalscorers at Sporting CP and his proficiency in front of goal has earned him the lustful gaze of at least two Premier League clubs.

Manchester United want to reunite Gyokeres with former Sporting head coach Ruben Amorim, while Arsenal's need to bring in a striker in the summer transfer window is painfully obvious.

Gyokeres has emerged as a top target for both Premier League giants but they'll have to dig deep if they're going to bring the Swedish frontman back to English football.

With an incredible return of 38 goals in 32 league starts for Sporting this season, Gyokeres has proved his abilities beyond doubt and will be the league's top scorer for the second season.

It's no wonder he's in demand. But where will he end up?

Gyokeres has made clear his preference for a move to Real Madrid but Arsenal and Man Utd are far more likely destinations.

According to the Mirror's John Cross, Gyokeres is on the Gunners' striker shortlist and a deal is a possibility if the money is right.

"Arsenal have been told Viktor Gyokeres is all theirs for £60m," reports Cross.

"Gyokeres, who turns 27 next month, has become an increasingly attractive option because of his amazing goal tally. Sporting are willing to do business and they have already made enquiries as they look to get business done early.

"Gyokeres, who has scored 95 goals in 100 appearances, would command a contract well in excess of £200,000-a-week to make him one of Arsenal ’s top earners."

The Mirror also reports that Sporting have an agreement in place to let Gyokeres move if the fee is right and have already ringfenced the money.

Cross adds: "There is believed to be an agreement for Gyokeres to leave Sporting if a club pays 70m Euros – just over £60m – with the Portuguese giants already earmarking cash for a rebuild next season. The price could go higher if there is a bidding war which puts the pressure on to get a deal done."

Where will Viktor Gyokeres move in the summer transfer window?

As Arsenal's interest starts to solidify, the Sweden international appears to be the perfect fit.

But Man Utd and Amorim complicate the situation. If the Red Devils qualify for the Champions League, Arsenal might lose their best bargaining chip.

The Gunners have other options too. Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak will surely be out of reach but Benjamin Sesko, RB Leipzig's impressive Slovenian centre forward, is on the shortlist too.
