Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres "remains open" to a move to Man Utd with a potential move to Arsenal stalling, according to reports.

Arsenal are reportedly considering giving up on their pursuit of Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres, with only a “glimmer of hope” remaining.

Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins would love to join Arsenal if the Gunners are unable to sign Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko.

Gyökeres’s final home outing under Amorim’s watch saw him plunder a hat-trick against Manchester City in the Champions League. The defending Portuguese champions were unbeaten across all competitions at the time Amorim was poached by United.

A deal has not been finalized for the Swedish striker, but it appears he has emerged as Arsenal's favored option in a summer where they have also been in negotiations with RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko. The Bundesliga side have held firm on their price tag for the young Slovenian striker, believed to be $94 million.

While still prioritising his move to Arsenal, Viktor Gyokeres is not opposed to joining Manchester United if a deal fails to materialise with the Gunners.

Viktor Gyokeres has reportedly offered to make a major sacrifice to secure his move to Arsenal, as Gunners sporting director Andrea Berta jets off to Lisbon to put the finishing touches to a deal that will finally end the club's long-running search for a new No.
