Gyokeres Awaits Champions League Before United Move

Manchester United are interested in signing Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres, but the Swedish forward is only willing to consider a move if United qualifies for the Champions League next season, which likely depends on winning the Europa League. Both Gyokeres and Sporting manager Ruben Amorim have indicated that Champions League qualification is a key factor for any potential transfer. Reports of an agreement are premature, as other clubs including Arsenal and Chelsea are also interested, and Gyokeres is said to prefer teams with Champions League status. United are also pursuing Matheus Cunha and plan to overhaul their attacking options this summer. If Champions League qualification is not achieved, United may shift focus to less high-profile targets such as Liam Delap. The club’s Europa League results will be crucial in determining their summer transfer strategy and their ability to attract top talent like Gyokeres.
