Viktor Gyokeres 'splits from model girlfriend' to 'remove all ties to Portugal' after she makes feelings clear on preferred transfer decision

Viktor Gyokeres has reportedly split from his model girlfriend as she has made her feelings clear on her preferred transfer this summer.

Gyokeres has been the subject of intense transfer speculation, with Arsenal, Manchester United and Juventus keeping tabs on his situation at Sporting CP.

He has emerged as one of the leading forwards in Europe following his prolific spell in Portugal's top flight, having scored an impressive 54 goals across all competitions last season.

But his services won't come cheap as Sporting CP president Frederico Varandas revealed the figure it will take to lure him away from Portugal.

A report claims Gyokeres has made a decision over his next club and is close to reaching an agreement with Arsenal ahead of a blockbuster summer switch.

A potential move to Arsenal won't please Gyokeres' model girlfriend as she wanted him to remain at Sporting CP ahead of the new season.

Ines Aguiar, who hails from Lisbon, 'promised' to try to persuade him to stay with the club for a third season.

However, in a stunning twist in the transfer saga, the 27-year-old has separated from Aguiar amid a 'relationship crisis'.

That's according to TV Guia, who claim they have been 'apart' since the Swedish international went on vacation.

Per the report, the end of the romance happened before Gyokeres went on holiday and is related to his decision to leave Sporting for good this summer.

He wants to remove all ties to Portugal as he hopes to complete a move back to England.

A source said: "Viktor doesn't want anything to tie him to Portugal, especially because he has already decided that he won't continue at Sporting next season."

Arsenal are hellbent on snapping up a new No.9, with Mikel Arteta also monitoring RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko.

But it appears the Gunners will end up recruiting Gyokeres, who is nearing a move away from Sporting CP.

The star forward has already plied his trade in England, having been on the books at Brighton. He made his name at Coventry City in the Championship, scoring 38 league goals in 91 matches across two seasons.
