Viktor Gyokeres spoke with France football while the negotiations continue between Arsenal and Sporting CP on a Mega-Money Transfer Deal
Arsenal Transfer -target Viktor Gyokeres has praised Bukayo Saka while the Swedish striker is preparing to collaborate with the international winger of England at the Emirates. The Gunners remain locked up in conversations with Sporting CP about a deal for the 27-year-old Center-Forward, which could still reach £ 70 million.
France Football has now published an extensive interview with Gyokeres and when asked which players have impressed him in the current game, the ex-Coventry Man Name-Drupped Saka and two other Arsenal stars that he was against in the Champions League last season.
Gyokees said: “Yes, certainly. Especially at English clubs. Midfielders such as Bernardo Silva, [Mateo] Kovacic in Manchester City of Saka in Arsenal are impressive to look at. I also confronted with a very high level defenders, such as Gabriel and [William] Saliba. It is an opportunity to play against that kind of players. “
The international frontman of Sweden could still fight against Gabriel and Saliba in Arsenal Training within a few weeks, because negotiations continue to transfer large money.
When asked if he could imagine that he was playing in the Premier League, Gyokees made no secret of the fact that he is open to a return to English football, and added: “It is one of the greatest competitions in Europe. I spent a few years there without playing a single game. So of course it is something I want to do.
Gyokees has never been in top clothing, despite the fact that he made eight performances for Brighton during his short -lived enchanting on the south coast.
But after he had rattled in and incredible 97 goals in 102 outings for sport, he has now charmed Mikel Arteta and has been identified as the man to lead the line for the Spaniard in North Londs.
On Friday, Gyokees did not show for sports training while offering to force his dream switch to Arsenal. Sporting will leave for the Algarve today for a training camp for the season, but again, Gyokeres will not be expected.
Instead, he is back at home in Stockholm in anticipation of developments because he is determined that he has now played his last game for the Portuguese champions that they have fired on the double during the 2024-25 campaign.
When asked whether he could leave during the interview – which is understood that he took place in Lisbon at the end of May – Gyokees explained: “Maybe that is football, you never know. I don't think about it; we will see what happens. If something happens, it will be the most important thing for me to play for a club that really wants me.”
