Sporting Lisbon Chief Discusses Future of Barcelona, PSG Target

According to Loïc Tanzi of L’Équipe, Paris Saint-Germain are one of several clubs eyeing Viktor Gyökeres as a possible signing for summer 2025, with PSG’s sporting advisor, Luís Campos, reportedly already reaching out to the forward’s representatives.

However, Le Parisien notes that Gyökeres may not be a top priority for PSG anymore. Manager Luis Enrique is said to have reservations about the high transfer fee, which is estimated between €75 million and €100 million. Within PSG, there’s growing concern about the risk of such a large investment.

Meanwhile, Gyökeres has also caught Barcelona’s attention. A Bola reports that Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, has started talks with Sporting Lisbon to explore a potential transfer for the Swedish forward.

Sporting Lisbon chief breaks silence on Viktor Gyökeres

As rumors continue to swirl about the Swedish standout’s future, Frederico Varandas, president of Sporting Lisbon, weighed in on the possibility of a sale in 2025, given the likely interest from numerous suitors for Gyökeres.

“I can’t promise anything [regarding his continuity],” Varandas said (h/t Diario AS). “If a club comes and pays the release clause, if he wants to leave… he will leave. But I don’t think it will happen in January.”

This season, Gyökeres has scored 23 goals while recording four assists in 18 appearances across all competitions.
