Chelsea’s chances of signing a player they’ve been linked with may have just improved.
- Scoring goals hasn’t been a problem for Chelsea this season, as they are the third-highest scorers in the Premier League.
- Despite this, the Blues are still interested in adding a new striker after missing out on Victor Osimhen in the summer.
- Chelsea could compete with Juventus for Jonathan David, while Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyokeres is also on their radar.
- It wouldn’t be surprising if Chelsea made a move for Gyokeres, as he’s currently one of the best centre-forwards in the world.
- This season, he has already scored 23 goals in just 17 appearances, including a hat-trick against Manchester City in the Champions League.
- Chelsea scouted Gyokeres during another Champions League match, indicating he’s definitely on their radar.
- Reports suggest that while the 26-year-old isn’t in a rush to choose his next club, a move to England is becoming increasingly likely.
- Gyokeres could potentially leave Sporting for around £58m.
- Other Premier League clubs that might pursue Viktor Gyokeres include Manchester United, especially with Ruben Amorim possibly taking over as their manager, and Arsenal, who may need a more prolific striker to compete with Manchester City.
Whoever manages to snap up Gyokeres will be getting a top footballer. “He is a great player,” former Portugal defender Jorge Andrade told beIN SPORTS when discussing the Sweden international. With his impressive form and goal-scoring ability, Gyokeres is likely to be a valuable addition to any team looking to strengthen their attacking options. His potential move to a Premier League club could significantly impact the league’s dynamics.
