Manchester United will step up their bid to land Swedish hotshot Viktor Gyokeres in this month's transfer window.
United manager Ruben Amorim has told club bosses he cannot wait until the summer to get Gyokeres - and needs to sign him now. Amorim is expected to see Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee leave Old Trafford in the coming weeks.
Rashford wants to find a new club, while United are willing to off-load Zirkzee to the highest bidder due to his woeful form. But a move to sign Gyokeres would cost United around £80m - and will have to be sanctioned by co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the Glazers.
Gyokeres has become the hottest prospect in Europe following his remarkable scoring feats with Sporting Lisbon. He has plundered 26 goals in 24 games this season, including a stunning hat-trick to demolish Manchester City in the Champions League in November.
The 26-year-old now has a release clause in his contract worth £80m. And it's understood Sporting president Frederico Varandas would hold United to the full amount if Gyokeres decides to leave mid-season.
Viktor Gyokeres is Manchester United's top transfer target
The news has put some of Europe's biggest clubs on red alert - and is expected to spark a mad scramble for his signature. But the fact United appointed the player's former Sporting boss Amorim will make them one of the favourites to land Gyokeres.
Amorim and Gyokeres enjoyed a close relationship during their time together in Lisbon. United are also among the lowest scorers in the Premier League this season - and in desperate need of a world class finisher as soon as possible.
