On Tuesday, Sporting kicked off the pre-season at their training facility in Alcochete, near Lisbon. Viktor Gyökeres was nowhere to be seen, the super striker had been granted extended vacations, as it is so elegantly called when club and player argue so badly. So what does the hottest striker on the market do while his teammates have started the run-up to the new season? “Chins” in scenic surroundings, of course. Muscles come in handy in the world’s toughest league.
Because superbock Gyökeres has not laid down on the sunbed while he waits for Manchester United, Arsenal and Sporting to agree on a transfer. The Swede’s personal trainer Giannis Katsigiannis has posted a couple of photos on Instagram of himself (of course) and Gyökeres training together, according to Maisfutebol the meeting place was Mykonos in Greece.
