Sporting Lisbon targeting Almeria prolific striker Luis Suarez as Gyokeres replacement

Viktor Gyokeres' future is about to become clearer. In the absence of official confirmation, the Swedish striker, one of the world's top goalscorers, is set to sign for Arsenal. The Gunners have been targeting him for a long time and in a matter of weeks his signing could be confirmed.

The Lisbon giants have not been sitting on their hands and have already set their sights on a new target.

Fabrizio Romano has reported that his priority is Colombian striker Luis Suarez, who plays for Almeria. The thing is, the Italian journalist has indicated that the two sides have been talking since June, but have so far failed to reach an agreement.

The striker is excited about the possibility of joining Sporting in Portugal and everything points to the fact that he will be the replacement of Gyokeres. The player from Santa Marta, who scored 31 goals in 43 games in the 2024-25 season, will have to forget a No 9 who shone with his own light with stratospheric numbers last season with 54 goals in 52 games.
