Sporting gesture on Vik fee

ARSENAL, Chelsea and Liverpool have received a transfer-window boost after Sporting Lisbon dramatically reduced Viktor Gyokeres’ asking price.

Manchester City are also fighting to land the Sweden striker’s signature next summer. It was reported the former Coventry man had an £83million release clause but fresh reports indicate a new agreement has been put in place.

Gyokeres has now reportedly been told he can leave for a fee between £50-58m.
