Viktor Gyokeres: Sporting striker will not leave for £59m – club president
Viktor Gyokeres has been heavily linked with Manchester United and Arsenal. The 27-year-old has a 100m euro (£85m) release clause in his contract. Sporting president Frederico Varandas says there is no ‘gentleman’s agreement’ for him to leave.
Sweden international Gyokeres, 27, has been heavily linked with Manchester United and Arsenal after scoring 97 goals in 102 matches during two seasons in Portugal.
He has a 100m euro (£85m) release clause in his contract.
It has been widely reported that, after staying at Sporting last summer, Gyokeres and Sporting agreed he could leave for 70m euros (£59m) this summer.
However, Varandas said the club’s only promise to Gyokeres was that they would not demand his full release clause.
“I can guarantee that Viktor Gyokeres will not leave for 60m euros plus 10m euros because I never promised that,” Varandas said.
