Arsenal 5/2 Favourites to Sign Gyökeres After Huge Season
Sporting CP’s Viktor Gyökeres has become one of Europe’s hottest transfer properties and bookmakers now make Arsenal the 5/2 favourites to land the prolific Swede in the upcoming transfer window.
With 63 goals in 58 appearances for club and country this season, Gyökeres has taken his game to elite levels and with Mikel Arteta on the hunt for a top-tier striker, links with the Gunners are intensifying.
The move would make sense stylistically and tactically, offering Arsenal a powerful No.9 presence they’ve arguably lacked since the days of Olivier Giroud.
Liverpool and Manchester United are also heavily linked, both priced at 7/2 with Bet365, while Atletico Madrid (4/1) and Juventus (11/2) represent the strongest continental threats.
The Gunners have also been linked with Benjamin Sesko this window and it may be a case of one of the other between him and Gyökeres.

Man United | 7/2 | 22.2% |
Atletico Madrid | 4/1 | 20.0% |
Juventus | 11/2 | 15.4% |
Napoli | 7/1 | 12.5% |
Stay at Sporting | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Sporting Facing Fight to Keep Star Man
Despite a contract running until 2028, Sporting look increasingly likely to lose Gyökeres, who turns 27 today, following one of the most prolific single seasons by a European striker in recent memory.
The club may hold out for a hefty fee, rumoured to be north of €80m, but the player’s output and physical profile make him an attractive option for several Premier League clubs.
