Arsenal, United’s Premier League opponents, will get Sporting forward Viktor Gyökeres instead of Manchester United.
Gyökeres is not interested in returning to Old Trafford to work with manager Rúben Amorim and is anticipated to make a move this summer.
The Swedish striker, on the other hand, is eager to get into the English Premier League with Arsenal.
When looking for a new striker, Arsenal are giving serious consideration to Benjamin Šeško of RB Leipzig and Gyökeres.
In spite of several approaches from Manchester United, football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano stated on X that “Viktor Gyökeres’ priority is to join Arsenal this summer.
” Arsenal is still evaluating the situation, although Gyökeres is always a possibility in the Šeško discussions, where no agreement has been signed yet. United are remaining keen, but they now believe a deal is unlikely.”
