Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the situation surrounding Arsenal and Manchester United’s Turret Target Victor Gyoker.
The Sport Lisbon and Swedish striker are on fire in front of recent goals, scoring 97 goals in his final 102 matches for the club.
Gyokeres is certainly good to continue playing on Portugal’s top flights for a long time, so it could be on the market this summer.
According to Romano, in the latest YouTube video post, Gyokeres prioritizes the move to Arsenal and tells Man United.

Viktor Gyoker wants to join Arsenal via Manchester United
Gyoker may be the ideal signature for Arsenal, which had lacked clinical target acquisitions last season, but Man UTD is also short in that division.
Still, it makes sense that Gyoker wants to join Gunners on the Red Devils, just as Mikel Arteta’s side has Champions League football.
Meanwhile, United will not be in Europe anytime next season, but is managed by Gyokeres’ old sports manager, Ruben Amorim.
This may be why Romano says that even if Gyoker wants to join Arsenal, or makes it clear to MUFC, he has yet to make it completely decide to join United.

“The question for many United fans is that Viktor Gyoker refuses to go to Arsenal. Everyone lets them explain the situation for Gyoker. Gyoker isn’t saying, ‘Man United No I’m Goodbye’,” Romano said.
“His agent spoke with Manchester United almost 10 days ago and told Manchester United that his priorities are Arsenal. So Victor Gyoker’s priority is to go to Arsenal. He clearly wants to go to Arsenal for a number of reasons, including Champions League football, but Victor Gyoker didn’t say no to Manchester United.
“So the player’s priorities are Arsenal, and players are waiting for Arsenal. Arsenal is waiting to understand the amount of Viktor Gyoker’s costs.
“I said there will be this fight between players’ agents this summer to honor the agreement with an exit fee of 60-65 euros.
