Manchester United are looking at a blockbuster move for Sporting CP goal-machine Viktor Gyokeres, and the transfer saga surrounding him promises plenty more twists and turns

Manchester United, under the guidance of Gyokeres' former manager Ruben Amorim, have now reportedly emerged as the leading contenders to secure the 27-year-old's services, attracted by his impressive tally of 97 goals in 102 appearances for the Portuguese champions.

Viktor Gyokeres is said to be fuming as Sporting CP are trying to renege on their agreement to let the Manchester United target leave for €70 million this summer. The Swedish striker has been making headlines ever since he turned up in Lisbon in 2023.
