According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Real Madrid are very much in the race for Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres. The Spanish outfit is ready to offer as much as 100 million to land the Swedish international in the summer.
Viktor Gyökeres is breathing fire with his performances
Viktor Gyökeres, who joined Sporting CP in the summer of 2023, has been a beast for the Portuguese club. He has been an exceptional performer with consistency. He has already positioned himself as one of the best strikers in the world at present.
Gyokeres is enjoying a phenomenal season so far as he has already netted 39 goals in 40 outings apart from nine assists. He is averaging 4.1 shots, 2.2 key passes, and 1.5 dribbles per game (stats via whoscored).
The Swedish international is a versatile and physically imposing striker. He often drops deep to receive the ball and then links up with his teammates. He is known for his pace, ball control, clinical finishing skills, and aerial dominance.
Where will Viktor Gyökeres fit in?
Real Madrid want to bolster their already star-studded offensive pack with the addition of Viktor Gyokeres. It’s understandable as they lack a typical striker in the squad. Though Kylian Mbappe has done reasonably well in the number nine role, the player prefers playing on the left wing.
Hence, the Whites are considering a massive move to acquire the services of Gyokeres in the summer. However, it won’t be easy as the Spanish club will have to break the bank. With so many interested parties, Sporting CP are unlikely to let the player go without charging a premium fee.
It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid will actually make an official attempt or not. As they already have so many star players, it will be tough to accommodate a place for the 26-year-old. A lot will decide on what they end up winning this season.
