Total pulse between Gy\u00f6keres and Sporting due to Arsenal’s interest. Imminent rupture?<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

The relationship between Viktor Gy\u00f6keres<\/strong>, an implacable 27-year-old Swedish goalscorer, and Sporting CP<\/strong>, the team that owns his rights until June 30, 2028, seems to be irremediably broken. Proof of this is that the Stockholm native has already given a clear sign of rebellion and his intentions to leave the current champion of the Primeira Liga<\/strong> in this summer market.<\/p>

Rebellion in preseason: Gy\u00f6keres does not show up<\/h2>

According to reports, Gy\u00f6keres has no intention of reporting to preseason training<\/strong> with the Lisbon team, to which he was summoned, in principle, last Monday, July 7. However, Viktor<\/strong> would have received special permission from Sporting CP<\/strong> to join a few days later, specifically on Friday the 11th. Something that also did not end up happening, being one of the great absentees in the work session carried out at the Academia Cristiano<\/strong>, the ‘verdiblancos’ operations center.<\/p>

With this pulse of the Nordic ‘9’ against the ‘Lions’, who will play a series of 2025\/26 preseason commitments from July 16 to 25 \u2014in which they will face Celtic<\/strong>, Farense<\/strong>, Sunderland AFC<\/strong> and Villarreal CF<\/strong>\u2014, his desire to no longer belong to Sporting CP<\/strong> is becoming increasingly evident. Not only that: beyond his intentions to leave, he would even have his favorite destination: Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal<\/a>.<\/p>

Agreement stalled: Sporting asks for 80 M\u20ac<\/h2>

The ‘Gunners’ would have already reached a verbal agreement with the Swedish striker<\/strong>. However, the problem now lies in the position of the ‘Lions’, refusing to let Gy\u00f6keres<\/strong> go for less than 80 ‘kilos’: 70 fixed plus 10 in variables.<\/p>

A desire that would be in counterpart with the alleged pact that Viktor<\/strong> had with the Portuguese team, where his departure would be facilitated if an offer between 60-70 M\u20ac arrived<\/strong>. An agreement that Frederico Varandas<\/strong>, president of Sporting CP<\/strong>, himself was in charge of publicly denying.<\/p>

Sanction in sight? Gy\u00f6keres stands firm<\/h2>

Hence the reason for the position of the Swedish ‘killer’ who saw how, despite the fact that Arsenal<\/strong> apparently came with a proposal of around 65 M\u20ac fixed plus 15 in variables<\/strong>, this would not have been accepted. A movement that is said to have generated the disappointment of Viktor<\/strong> and his reluctance to join the dynamics of Sporting CP<\/strong>, a team that, if the striker does not show up soon and does not give a justification for his absence, could declare him in default<\/strong> and apply an important sanction at an economic level.<\/p>

Will the situation be resolved or unblocked soon? It is not known. What is clear is that the Gy\u00f6keres ‘soap opera’ is at its peak<\/strong> and without a clear solution.<\/p>
