  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Relations between Gyokeres and Sporting appear to have hit a low as speculation over a summer exit continues. Gyokeres has been left "furious" by Sporting's decision to go back on a transfer promise that he could leave for £60 million (€70m), with the club now demanding £70m (€83m). According to Record, Gyokeres has responded by telling the club he feels disrespected and has threatened to go on strike. The forward reportedly won't return for pre-season, as things stand, and may have already played his last game for the club.

    Gyokeres scored 39 goals in just 33 league games for Sporting in the 2024-25 season as they pipped rivals Benfica to Portugal's Primeira Liga title on the final day of the campaign. The Swede finished the season with 54 goals across all competitions, including a stunning hat-trick against Man City in the Champions League.

    WHAT NEXT FOR GYOKERES

The striker has given little away about his future but did admit recently that after: "After living in a hot country, it would be difficult [to return to a colder country]."
