The 27-year-old striker has attracted attention from several top clubs, including PSG, Juventus, and Al Hilal, but the strongest links remain with the two Premier League giants. ..Continue Reading
Gyokeres enjoyed a sensational 2024/25 campaign with Sporting CP, scoring 52 goals in 54 matches and playing a pivotal role in their domestic double triumph, lifting both the Primeira Liga and Taça de Portugal.
And last week, talkSPORT’s Alex Crook reported that Gyokeres had made his choice of which team he wants to join, he wrote: “I had a message 24 hours or so ago suggesting that Viktor Gyokeres has told friends and family he expects to join Arsenal.
“We know that Manchester United are interested in signing him as well, obviously, there is that pre-existing relationship with Ruben Amorim.
“But Arsenal can offer Champions League football, maybe can offer a tilt at the title next season.
“But Sporting are going to play hardball, there’s been a fallout between Gyokeres and the club because his agent has suggested that they had a gentleman’s agreement he could leave for £60million, I think they’re looking for nearer £80m.”
Gyokeres’ next move remains uncertain, but supporters believe he’s dropped a hint through his Instagram activity.
A screenshot shared by the Arsenal fan page ‘Arsenal Pulse’ revealed that Gyokeres follows ‘Elite Dogs Protection,’ a London-based security firm also followed by Jack Wilshere, David Raya, and Ben White.
The discovery sparked immediate reactions from fans, who were quick to speculate on what it might mean.
One said: “The absolute scenes of this investigative work. This is a major sign IMO.”
Another added: “Can’t decide whether finding this out is weirdly impressive or impressively weird.”
A third commented: “Hate social media during transfer windows. The days of getting absolutely blindsided by signing Mesut Özil are gone, and I miss them. Having said that, Arsenal fans’ detective work never fails to deliver.”
While another added: “Why’s he following a London-based guard dog company also used by multiple Arsenal players? Interesting.”
It’s worth mentioning that the exact timing of when Gyokeres started following the account remains uncertain—he could have done so during his earlier stints in England with Coventry or Brighton.
