Man Utd 'Close to Hijacking' Gyokeres' Arsenal Transfer with Bombshell Late Bid
PORTUGAL, JUL 20 – Manchester United has made a late offer matching Sporting CP's €70 million valuation for striker Viktor Gyokeres, complicating Arsenal's efforts amid stalled transfer talks.
- On Sunday, Sporting CP initiated disciplinary proceedings against Viktor Gyokeres, who has refused pre-season training, and he has responded through his legal team.
- Amid stalled talks, Arsenal and Sporting CP had agreed a €55 million plus €8.6 million add-ons deal, but negotiations have since ground to a halt.
- According to SIC Noticias, Manchester United are close to a Sporting CP agreement, having tabled a €70–80 million last-gasp bid to hijack the transfer.
- The delay has opened the door for Manchester United to intervene, and Arsenal's inability to finalize terms risks backfiring after United's last-gasp bid.
- In the coming days, Fabrizio Romano reported Gyokeres remains determined to join only Arsenal, and he could join their pre-season tour of Asia.
