Gyokeres has emerged as a highly sought-after asset in recent months, showcasing exceptional performance with newly-crowned Portuguese champions, Sporting. Consequently, Arsenal and Chelsea have frequently been mentioned as potential destinations for the talented forward. Following Sporting’s Primeira Liga triumph, the striker, valued at €110 million (£85.6m/$107.8m), hinted at a possible transfer by keeping the door open for a summer departure.

In an interview with Bola Na Rede, Gyokeres expressed his delight at the team’s success, indicating a willingness to celebrate and leaving his future open-ended. Reflecting on his first title win, he credited coach Ruben Amorim for his pivotal role in his career and expressed gratitude to Sporting fans. While acknowledging his contractual obligations, he remained open to the possibility of staying but also hinted at potential changes ahead.

The 25-year-old striker played a pivotal role in Sporting’s league victory, amassing an impressive tally of 27 goals and 10 assists, making him the top scorer in the Portuguese top flight and the leader in goal contributions. With Sporting already clinching the league title with games to spare, they now set their sights on potentially securing a double as they prepare to face Porto in the Taca de Portugal final on May 26th.
