Viktor Gyokeres\' name has been linked with a magnitude of clubs since he joined Sporting and that will only increase following the revelation of his supposed release clause.

Gyokeres is enjoying a breathtaking season at the Portuguese giants - having plundered in 47 goals in 46 matches in all competitions, alongside 11 assists.

His feats this campaign follow a terrific debut 2023-24 term where he scored 43 goals in 50 matches with 15 assists to boot for the club.

The 26-year-old\'s exploits at Sporting have earned him many suitors - with multiple top European teams on the lookout for a striker this summer.

And Gyokeres will be an even greater attraction with his release clause surprisingly lower than you think.

According to Portuguese outlet A Bola, the Sweden international\'s release clause is just £60million.

Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres\' release clause has been revealed, according to reports

He has been in devastating form for Sporting this season - scoring 43 goals in 50 games so far

Gyokeres is set to be at the heart of a bidding war between many top European clubs as a result

They detail that due to initially signing for Sporting in 2023 and having played so well there that a pact was reached to not enforce an initial £85.7m release clause.

However, the Portuguese club are hopeful of generating a larger fee than his £60m release clause - with a bidding way set to ensue for their No 9.

A Bola report that Gyokeres wants to play for a Champions League club next season and has many teams on his wishlist. In fact there, there are seven in total: Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City from the Premier League, Barcelona and Real Madrid from LaLiga, Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain and Bundesliga\'s Bayern Munich. 

And of his aforementioned preferred destinations, A Bola add that one is leading the race for his signature.

Arsenal are the \'best-placed club\' to sign Gyokeres - with the Gunners in desperate need for a striker to fire them to Premier League glory, with champions-elect Liverpool set to prolong the north London outfit\'s wait for a first title since 2004 this season.

Mikel Arteta\'s side have been warned that Chelsea could swoop in for a move though, like how the Blues beat Manchester United to buying Sporting youngster Geovany Quenda in a £43.7m deal last month.
