According to a report by TEAMtalk, Manchester United are confident that 27-year-old Sporting CP goal machine Viktor Gyokeres wants to move to Old Trafford this summer as Ruben Amorim eyes a reunion with his former charge.
The Swedish international scored 54 goals last season and he is one of the best players in the world right now. He would be an exceptional acquisition for Manchester United and he could take them to a whole new level.
Manchester United need attacking depth in the side if they want to do well next year. Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund have been quite poor and they need replacing.
It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can sign the Swedish international in the coming weeks.
He is likely to cost a substantial amount of money. However, he is at the peak of his powers and he could make an instant impact in the Premier League.
He has played for multiple English clubs in the past, and it remains to be seen whether Manchester United can bring him back to English football.
The 27-year-old is at the peak of his powers and this is the right time for him to try out a new challenge and move to a bigger league. Manchester United are among the biggest clubs in the world and the opportunity to play for them will be hard to turn down.
They have had a disappointing season and they finished in the bottom half of the league table last year. They will look to fight for Champions League qualification and domestic trophies next year. They need top-quality players at their disposal and signing the Swedish international could be a transformative addition.
The striker has been heavily linked with clubs like Arsenal as well. He will hope to compete at a high level and fight for trophies. Although Manchester United have not secured Champions League qualification for the next season, they have the resources to build a formidable squad. They could be fighting for major trophies soon.
