Transfer Rumour: Manchester United - 1

Reports from across Europe that United are showing an interest in Viktor Gyokeres, but they fear that Premier League rivals Liverpool could scupper their chances of landing him.

United are in the market for a new forward, as they want to add to their attacking options alongside Rasmus Hojlund.

The club has been evaluating different options for a potential transfer in this position, and Gyokeres seems to have caught the attention of the club's management. It is believed that INEOS, the club's new minority owners, are eager to proceed with the transfer plans to avoid missing out on specific targets.

INEOS are in the process of bringing in Dan Ashworth as sporting director and Jason Wilcox as technical director. However, their appointments are not yet finalised. 

United are aware that they need to address key areas in the squad and that will ideally see the spine of the team refreshed with a new central defender, a new midfielder and a forward all in their planning.

Who is Viktor Gyokeres?

Gyokeres possesses fantastic strength and speed and is known for fantastic ball control. Last season, he scored 22 goals for Coventry City. This persuaded Sporting to sign him for around €20 million. The Swedish forward has impressed many fans and pundits across Europe having scored 36 goals in all competitions. 

You can watch some of his best moments in the video below. The video is from LUTYHD - YouTube.

What are Man United fans saying?

Man United Fan Club posted on Twitter: "Gyokeres is one who has stood out to the club’s hierarchy and it is understood that INEOS – are willing to push ahead with transfer plans, if it means on not missing out on certain targets. Would you take him at MUFC? Thoughts?"

One fan replied with the following message:
