Gyokeres 'Trick'

Viktor Gyokeres caused a stir when he admitted that coach Ruben Amorim's playing style is perfect for him despite rejecting MU to join Arsenal.

Gyokeres admits to being a fit for Amorim but yearning to join Arsenal.

The 27-year-old Swedish striker is very close to the Emirates Stadium after Arsenal and Sporting entered the final negotiation stage this week. Previously, MU was also very interested in Gyokeres, because the player is a favorite student of Amorim. This coach turned the Swedish striker into a goal machine during the past two explosive seasons.

However, Gyokeres has decided to join Arsenal. The striker is even willing to give up nearly £2 million in wages so that Arsenal can pay a higher price for Sporting, and has also declared that he is ready to go on strike and not show up for training to force the Portuguese club to release him.

What makes many "Red Devils" fans feel like they were deceived is that only recently, Gyokeres still praised his former coach Amorim. He told L'Equipe : "We won the championship two seasons in a row, the first time in 71 years. It's unbelievable. Amorim played a huge role and I can't thank him enough. His style of play really suits me."

Under Amorim, Gyokeres exploded with 66 goals and 23 assists in just 68 games. However, Gunners fans don't have to worry too much. After Amorim left Sporting, Gyokeres maintained his incredible form with 31 goals and 12 assists in just 34 games.

Arsenal are still "weighing, measuring, and calculating" to finalize the fee. The Portuguese team is determined to keep the price at 68.9 million pounds. Arsenal has only offered 64.6 million pounds, which means they are still 4.3 million short of the required amount.

However, both sides are optimistic that they will find common ground. Gyokeres has finalized personal terms with Arsenal. He signed a five-year contract in the journey to conquer the Premier League title with coach Mikel Arteta.
