Liverpool are reportedly eyeing a summer move for Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres, whose exceptional form in front of goal has caught the attention of top Premier League clubs, including Arsenal.

The 25-year-old Swedish forward has been nothing short of sensational this season, scoring an astonishing 53 goals in just 51 appearances across all competitions, making him one of the most prolific strikers in European football.

His physical strength, quick footwork, and ability to convert under pressure have made him a nightmare for defenders, and his performances have played a key role in Sporting’s Primeira Liga title win under manager Rúben Amorim.

Gyökeres’ potential departure was indirectly hinted at by his teammate Pedro Gonçalves during Sporting’s title celebrations, where he suggested that this might be the last time fans see certain players in the green and white shirt. While Gonçalves didn’t name names, the speculation around Gyökeres has been intensifying, especially with his reported €100 million release clause.

Liverpool, now managed by Arne Slot following Jürgen Klopp’s departure, are believed to be exploring attacking reinforcements as part of a squad evolution, and Gyökeres could be a prime candidate to lead the line. With Darwin Núñez’s inconsistencies and Cody Gakpo still settling in, bringing in a clinical finisher like Gyökeres could be crucial for Slot’s plans at Anfield.
