Sporting are eyeing Almeria's Luis Suarez as their ideal replacement for Viktor Gyokeres amid ongoing transfer discussions with Arsenal and a £63.5million deal that has continued to drag

Arsenal are yet to seal a move for Viktor Gyokeres despite closing in on a deal that could be worth around £69 million ($93m). Gyokeres is determined to leave Sporting CP this summer as he wants a move to the Premier League ahead of the 2025-26 campaign and as a result he did not even turn up for the club's pre-season preparations and instead stayed back in his homeland.

Sporting CP fans have made clear their thoughts on Viktor Gyökeres’s desire to leave the club, as an Arsenal transfer edges towards completion. Gyökeres had never played top flight football before arriving in Lisbon in 2023, but 97 goals and two Lia Portugal titles later, the Swede’s intent for moving has hardly been a secret.
