The answer to everyone who contacted Sporting about Viktor Gyökeres, even if it was their old manager Ruben Amorim was: Come up with 100 million euros, which is the buyout clause or forget it!
Spanish AS have in recent days stated that Viktor Gyökeres wants to stay at Sporting for the rest of the season, despite the fact that he is surrounded by rumors of a transfer to giants. Portuguese Record, has similar information and also states that club president Frederico Varandas is prepared to turn down lucrative offers in the January window.
There is no doubt where Viktor Gyökeres wants to go!
But there is a caveat.
In order for Gyökeres to stay until the end of the season, Sporting have reportedly agreed to lower the price in the summer window to 70-75 million euros, and this is said to be agreed between the player and the club.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim promised when he left Sporting in early November last year that he would not fish in his own waters this winter, but wait until next summer.
Gyökere’s contract with Sporting runs until 2026.
