Viktor Gyokeres has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United this summer, but the Sweden international looks set to join Premier League rivals Arsenal instead

The 27-year-old built a healthy and fruitful relationship with now-United boss Amorim, scoring 66 times in 68 appearances under his watch at Sporting CP, but Old Trafford chiefs have no intention to send an offer to Portugal as the forward is closing in on a move to Arsenal whilst the focus in the North West switches to offloading certain players.

The report adds that Gyokeres’ contract with Arsenal, which will run until 2030, has already been prepared. Manchester United had been offered the chance again to sign Gyokeres after talks between Arsenal and Sporting stalled, however, the 27-year-old made it clear that Mikel Arteta’s side was the only destination he wanted.
