Record in Portugal confirmed that Viktor Gyokeres will not be coming to Manchester United anymore after a series of rumors that have appeared in recent times. Sporting President Frederico Varandas recently revealed that there is no agreement on Gyokeres moving to Man United. Meanwhile, Gyokeres' agent Hasan Cetinkaya said he had evidence of a deal between the Swedish star and the English team.
However, on June 14, the Portuguese Record confirmed that Gyokeres would not move to Old Trafford anymore, thereby ending the hope of a reunion with captain Ruben Amorim. This is a very surprising move because in the past 4 days, the conflict between the 27-year-old star and Sporting has been pushed to the peak. The players said that their home team had deceived and increased the price of "free money" when the top teams in England contacted them.
The draw between Gyokeres and Sporting has brought him closer to arriving at Old Trafford. Social networking sites and the press have been thinking about the prospect of the next season, the "Red Devils" could own a bright attacking trio of Matheus Cunha - Viktor Gyokeres - Bryan Mbeumo. However, up to now, only Cunha has been a Man United player, the remaining two names are just rumors, in which the Mbeumo deal that seemed to be over is now in trouble.
Whether Viktor Gyokeres will come to Man United or not will determine Ruben Amorim's attacking framework strategy in the coming season. He has now opened the door for Alejandro Garnacho to leave the team. In addition, names like Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford or Rasmus Hojlund could also join next month. If he cannot make the additions in time, Amorim will have to reuse the above factors or fall into a serious shortage of players, and have to use the same midfield patch as last season.
If Gyokeres does not really come to Man United as Record reported, Amorim must focus on owning a new striker from now on. The Mbeumo target, although not successful, is in a position to make progress. If there is no more top striker, the possibility of competing in the next season will be very alarming.
In recent days, when Viktor Gyokeres has become a top target in the transfer market, he has also been linked with Arsenal quite a lot. After the Swedish striker was rumored to be joining Man United, Arsenal switched to Benjamin Sesko. If The Gunners continue to target Sesko, Man United will have the opportunity to chase Gyokeres. In terms of position and strength at the moment, Man United is far behind Arsenal, so pursuing the same goal with the opponent is impossible.
If they miss Viktor Gyokeres, Victor Osimhen and Hugo Ekitike are two names still available in the market for Man United. After many rumors, Osimhen has not been able to arrive at Al-Hilal yet, so if he can create a lightning send, Man United can own the Nina striker.
After 102 matches for Sporting Lisbon, Viktor Gyokeres has scored 97 goals. The Swedish striker's transfer fee is around £59 million. This is the fee to break the 27-year-old star's contract with the Portuguese team.
